I've been having two problems with WA, and I need help.
1. Whenever I join WormNET, it will get laggier and laggier until it freezes up my computer for like an hour. When I first got WA, it would work just fine. I have no idea what the problem could be. Single player doesn't have the problems half as often, but for some reason it happened last night.
2. In-game, I have a dark background, and I have no idea how to fix it. This also wasn't the case when I first got WA.
I'd appreciate some help with how to fix these problems. I love this game, and I'd hate to think that I couldn't play it anymore because of sudden problems that weren't even initally there.

OK
1) Running anything in the background? Anything traffic heavy or intensive?
2) Press Delete or Insert button (I forget which way round) to toggle the names of worms displayed, and the background

As per the first point, is it the game itself or the menu screens?

Get a program which tracks CPU usage of processes over time, such as Process Explorer (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx). Check which process is taking up most CPU time when W:A starts lagging.
