Like you I tried all suggestions and no difference. However, I have a
Desktop and Laptop using the same broadband connection and both have
same symptoms. I took the laptop to a friends house tonight and had no
problems at all. I guess I have a bad connection either in the internal
wiring or the house or at the exchange. Alternatively it could be a bad
filter.

I'd still say it's a DNS issue. Did you see my other reply?

Yes thanks. I saw your reply and did as you suggested. Still no
difference!

Are you connecting to the internet via a router? In the past I've had issues
with my Netgear DG834 appearing to run out of memory for the cache on it's
DNS proxy, and I ended up disabling it and setting it to forward my ISPs DNS
IP addresses to my PC instead. Since doing that, and disabling the DNS
client service, I rarely get DNS problems - if I do, it's because both of my
ISP's DNS servers are having problems resolving, and there's little that can
be done to workaround that unless you happen to know addresses for publicly
accessible recursive DNS servers (and there aren't many of those around as
it's a potential security hole and resource drain to the servers running
them).
