Timing out

Using WinXP and OE 6.0. I keep getting the message: The
operation timed out when attempting to contact (address).
It occurs with no order as I try to access web sites,
including this one. On one try the site will respond and
on the next several tries I get the message again. I may
get the same message most of the day at at a site I
regularly access and then suddenly the site responds. I
could not even access my service provider for a while.

Also I will go offline unexpectedly while at a site as I
did while typing this message. My machine just shuts down
and I get a redialing message.

Help needed and appreciated.

Thanks
 
Spontaneous shutdown could be hardware problem.

Heat is often the cause, check the fan in the back of your computer box,
clean it.

Make sure the small fan on your Motherboard for your CPU is working.
