Hi all,

I have a new version of XP and an old version of Win2000.
XP hangs when connected to the internet and I attempt any
of the following:

1. Run Windows Update - gets to 66% of checking and then
hangs
2. Try to send an email with attachment
3. Try to connect to some websites (no apparent pattern)

Any ideas?

Thanks,

T
