So, the moral of the story is, don't blame someone else's service for a fault when it's your computer that's in need of repair...

Point taken.
(Though I don't think I have malware. I don't run Windows much and I am careful. Still, you never know I suppose....)

Hi KeyBasher, I've run some detailed tested on your line and there are some issue which I've addressed. Your sync rate is now looking much better. Your profile speed is due to increase imminently. That said, I feel that you have other problems with your computer and this could also have an impact on your speed and also needs to be sorted out. Tony

I don't know what you have done, but things are looking good at the moment. I'm currently working on a tablet and browsing is great again. And I'm playing a Youtube video - without any visible delay.
Wonderful, thank you.
On another note, what might the "other problems with my computer" be?

That's great news regarding the improvement in connection.
Regarding potential issues with your computer it might be worth posting a description in the Mac/Linux software board: http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/board,59.0.html to get further advice.
