Re: WinSock Problem

i have pretty much the same problem except that i am able to make an https
and ftp connection. the bigger issue is that on reboot i am able to access
the internet for about 15 minutes, intially vey good and then the connection
slows down to nil and i get the same error reports from the diagnostic tool.
i can send and receive mail at any time.
i have tried all the suggestion nass but it does not help. i have installed
a port reporter but it is not picking up anything that appears to be blocking
port 80 after this time period.
i have uninstalled my A-V without success and also re-installed ie7. have
deleted the winsock reg entries but had to restore working entries frim
another computer to get my nic working again. i have used various winsock and
lsp fixes and still the problem exists. i also re-applied sp2 and the time i
m able to access the internet went form 2-5 minutes to about 15 minutes.
is there perhaps another way to reset/delete and recreate the winsock
catalog without using the cmd line? my diagnostics error msg says "not all
base provder enties can be found in the winsock catalog". i had a few vpn
programs installed to test but have uninstalled them. the port reporter keeps
on reporting that my wsus server is not available but i have unistalled this
a long time ago. i run reg mechanic every time time i reboot but this does
not appear to have cleared the wsus server issue. i do not think the wsus has
something to do with it but i am grasping at ANY possibility right now.
any help would be appreciated
