It stops reponding by not being able to connect to ANY
web address. The only way to "fix" it is to reboot. I
have 5 computers on my LAN, (3 running 98SE, 1 running XP
Pro and 1 running XP Home), and it is only the Home
machine that has the problem. I have a Linksys router
connected to Comcast cable. All my machines are
configured the same, have Norton IS 2003, with the
firewall "on" and run daily virus scans. As I said
before, I have updated and run ALL of the recomended
sypware fixes including hijack, to no avail. I just ran
Hijack again and will post the log as you suggested. I do
belive that Microsoft makes good products, its just that
it seems that they are so full of themselves that they
refuse to admit it when one of their products has a
problem.
