Browsing problem Help please

I have problems browsing.

Using Windows 200 pro, and Internet Explorer 6.

Problem is After typing in an address, I usually get the Cannot find server
error screen, or page not available.

Hitting restore a few times often allows it to fully load, but not always.

I'm on braid band, but only at 150 connection speed.

Any ideas on what could be wrong would be most grateful.

It seams that logging in after the first time makes little difference, and I
have run Spy Catcher, Norton AntiVirus, with all of its latest updates, and
I have ZoneAlarm running, so viruses I hope will not be the culprit.

Just one other point I'm in the UK, if that makes any odds.

thanks for any help you can offer.

Cheers Vaughn
 
Hello,

Use MSConfig to see what is running at startup (and to modify this). Typically, if this is not a
simple DNS or networking issue, I see that it IS a virus or spyware software program playing
games with name resolution.

Thank you for your post.
