If you have a slow ADSL broadband the first thing to do is eliminate a faulty line coming to the building. The best way to test this is to run a Quite Line Test. This test is not the most scientific and relies on the sensitivity of the human ear. However your ear is very good at picking up noise interference when it is supposed to be dead quiet.
This test pin-points interference between the Exchange and Master socket (the demarcation entry point into the building).
Sometimes, your computer is noticeably slower or programs “hang” when you access certain files or upgrades fail or programs just won’t run. This odd behaviour might occur because there is corruption of within the files system on your hard disk drive.
You can troubleshoot the problem by using the Windows Disk Check tool called CHKDSK. Check Disk can identify and automatically correct file system errors and make sure that you can continue to load and write data from the hard disk. You can use Check Disk in all versions of Windows not only for local hard drives,

I have tried various image paste WordPress Plugins but always come across some drawback or other. Imagepaste works well but puts the image in wp-content\uploads with an unrecognisable random file name and does not add the name to the Media library. Image-elevator looks good but forces you to use the premium (paid for) version to get any real value out of it.
However I have discovered a work-around in Kubuntu using the fantastic KSnapshot screen capture program. This allows you to drag and drop the snapshot image directly into WordPress.
