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

Thanks for the suggestions. It turned out to be a DNS problem. Depending on
when they were set up, some computers were using the DNS from the ISP that
handles our email and web site and others were using the DNS from the ISP
that provides our physical internet access. Switching to the working DNS
solved the problem. It may have just been a coincidence that this happened
about the same time as the latest MS security updates.
