Hi Frank:

I did exactly as per your reccommendation. Did updates and ran the
protection softwares. However, the problem of browser shutting down (without
any warning, error message) is still there. Another web site where it happens
is the log-on page for sympatico email.

Your feedback, help will be appreciated.

Thank you.
