I run a Dell Dimension 4100 on a dial up through Bell South at my apartment,
where I live remotely while woking a temorary job. Recently, my computer was
gummed up and I paid to have it cleaned. The OS was reinstalled, as were all
of my saved files. In attempting to access the Internet in the same manner as
before the computer was repaired, I have encountered problems. My connection
through Bell South is established, and I get anywhere between 40 and 50 Mbps
speed readout. However, when I click on Internet Explorer, the homepage
begins to load, and loads to about 40-50% (on the blue bar) and it STOPS. It
will not continue to load. I've waite 10 minutes, and nothing! As I worked
with a number of Bell South's techs, they asked what files were running on
the task list. I read them to him. He said one file "wuauclt.exe" was a
virus. I'm at a loss. Since the computer is connecting, and I'm getting a
reasonably strong signal (the ping test came back 100% 4 out, 4 back in
140ms). I also have Norton 2004 loaded (but I've tried to disable to allow to
load) and Webroot's Spy System (anti-spam and cookie defeater) Can anyone
suggest what the heck is going on and why I can't get uploaded?
