Something is not right... Something out of place. I use Verizon DSL with the Westell 6100 model. I have horrible laggy speeds, which compared is similar to dial-up. In addition I have several questions about the process "alg.exe". Why is this process running? I don't share a internet connection and Windows Firewall is disabled. People on other forums told that it was unnecessary. I found several of these "alg" files in the I368 folder and in the servicepack folders. I bewildered! People told me that after terminating the process alg.exe, their internet connection worked fine.
I use a Windows XP Home SP2.
