Everything's caught up and running better, but still slow. We haven't updated to Windows 10, but he's thinking about it. 

I think there's more to the performance that the system. First, web sites have changed a lot just in the last few years -- there are so full of graphics, ads, and all kinds of crap -- they just take longer to load. Second, our router's old. It's 150 and we have 200mps download, but even I'm not seeing 150 with my system. 

The system needed a tune up anyway and he says it's running better. Thanks everyone for your help.

Hi Susan

Bite the bullet an upgrade to Windows 10. I have yet to see a machine – even 10 years old – that didn’t run faster and better with Windows 10. The only ”bump” you should pass is a minimum ram of 2 GB for 32-bit and 4 GB for 64-bit Windows. And – for very old machines with graphic chips not supported any longer by Windows – make sure a graphics driver for at least Windows Vista exists.
