Hi Ron H,
I'm in an Isle in the West coast, so I'm going to hit water pretty soon, but
after 20 miles swiming, when I get to the main land going East I should get
to Miami. It is right? ;-)

Engel, I had problems posting yesterday, First i would read posts and when i
would return they would be gone and twice i posted and sent but they didn't
go and i had to re-write the post to make it to the forum. Maybe thats why
you didn't get your update on time. As A. Bob said it is getting very hard to
post here, wondering why?

Hi Ron H,
Maybe the culprit is or was the DNS servers of your IP.
Have you doing a weekly or montly maintenance in your PC,
Part of your regular maintenance plan should be to run in safe mode.
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/chsafe.htm
Shut down the computer and turn off the power. Wait for at least 30 seconds,
and then restart the computer in Safe mode or VGA mºde.
You can clear prefetch files by going to Start menu and Run and typing
prefetch, and then click OK.
Prefetch files are there to help programs load/open quicker but they will be
replaced in prefetch when they are used agªin.
This folder may accumulate useless junk, especially if you change your
configuration a lºt. There's no harm in emptying it. Simply delete all the
files in that folder; Windows will rebuild it as needed
http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/Gaining-Speed-Empty-Prefetch-XP.html
Open a Internet window and go to Internet Options, Delete Cookies and Temp
Files and included all offline content then also go to Start and Run and type
%temp% and clear that fºlder.
Run the Disk Cleanup tººl
To start the Disk Cleanup tool, click Start, click run, type cleanmgr.exe in
the Open box, and then click OK.
How to Automate the Disk Cleanup Tool in Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315246
Browsing the Web, installing utilities, and performing others normal Windows
activities can cause a whole bunch of useless files to build up in a
hard-to-find Temp folder.
(Typically it's located in Documents and Settings\username\Local
Settings\Temp.) Worse, Windows skips this folder when I tell it to delete
temporary files.
THE FIX: In Windows Explorer, right-click the C: drive (or other drive, as
appropriate), select the General tab, and click the Disk Cleanup button. Even
though the Disk Cleanup tool deletes useless files and thereby frees up disk
space,it doesn't touch the Temp file folder under Local Settings. So I have
to delete these orphaned files manually: To do that, close all programs,
navigate to the folder, press <Ctrl>-A to select the files, and press
<Delete>.
To enable hidden files and folders Go to taskbar, click Start > My Computer.
On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
On the View tab, uncheck Hide file extensions for known file types.
Make sure that 'Show hidden files and folders' is enabled.
Display the contents of system folders' is checked & 'Hide extentions for
known file types ' is not checked then press ªpply.
You can set this back later by opening the same page and pressing 'restore
defaults' then pressing ªpply,
HOW TO Enable Hidden Files:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2002092715262339
Empty your IE cache and your other temporary file folders, eg: c:\temp,
c:\windows\temp or C:\Documents and Settings\<name>\Local Settings\Temp (the
path to your temp folder will change depending on your name) - sometimes
programmes can be hidden in there - watch out for mysterious *.exe files or
*.dll files in those fºlders.
and c:\Documents and Settings\username\local settings\Temporary Internet
Files\Content.IE5 and delete all the files in those directories and
subdirectºries).

Clear your temporary files automatically
If you're really serious about keeping people out of your browsing business,
you can automatically delete your cached files every time you close your
browser. To do this:
1. In Internet Explorer, open the Tools menu and click Internet Options.
2. Click the Advanced tab and then scroll to Security.
3. Select the Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed
checkbox, and then click Apply.
Now, every time you close your browser, your cached files are automatically
deleted.
Do full deep scans with Windows Defender. Repeat scanning until a complete
scan comes through clean. Ditto with the ªntivirus.
Make sure you go through them all and really strictly .
Also you might consider CCleaner and or HDCleaner for a more thorough
cleaning.
HDCleaner
It's an outstanding free utility
http://home.tiscali.de/zdata/hdcleaner_e.htm
Please Read the Review at MajorGeeks link.
This is NOT a tool for newbies or the unskilled who don't know what they are
doing. It is designed for technicians who have experience in malware hunting.

I hope tthis post is helpful.
Good luck
