Ok this is pretty weird,
once i turn my computer on I'm fine,
I'll connect to the internet and enjoy some time surfing. Then I'll disconnect and go about my business. When i reconnet to the internet my whole computer is slowed down.

virus protector.

Couple of things you could try.
After you have disconnected from the net, press ctrl,alt & del, to see what processes are running - if there are any that still relate to your dial up connection (rnapp etc) - kill them, do a bit and then reconnect. If your connection is still narly then disconnect, reboot and try again - if it's ok this time, then there may be a problem with some program not releasing ram back to the memory pool. You willl have to do a bit of trial and error to see which proggy it is.
Hope this helps:tup:
