Computer going offline for no apparent reason

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Group,

My internet explorer has taken to going offline for no apparent reason.
When refreshing a page a dialogue box appears and says "No internet
connection available" with an option to "Work offline" or "Try again". When
the try again box is clicked, I am immediately reconnected and things go
along as normal. This is a recent occurrence.

What setting could be causing this?

I have tried changing firewall preferences, checked Microsoft anti-spyware,
checked ZoneAlarm, and AVG. None seem to have any preferences or possible
options that would cause this.

TIA for any help. Also, suggestions for posting to a more appropriate
newsgroup would be welcomed.

Ferdy
