Help! My computer is not functioning properly. Whenever
I connect to the internet and am looking at my homepage,
and try to browse, 90% of the time I receive messages
such as "this page cannot be displayed" or "check
address". This occurs with three different browsers. It
also happens with pages which I have bookmarked and
visited numerous times. The other 10%of the time,
everything works perfectly- no problems at all- for about
5-10 minutes after which the aforementioned behavior
happens aagain. Any ideas? Thenks
 
It sounds like your ISP may have a problem, a lot of them do right now
because of the virus problems. Are you using dial-up, DSL, or Broadband. You
may also have the blaster worm in your system. To check press CTRL, ALT, DEL
and select the Task Manager. Under Processes look for a process called
msblast.exe running on your system. If it is shut the process down and
follow the removal instructions posted on:
