    ... curiously, this doesn't happen when I come out of Outlook Express. I am on broadband and running a Tiscali modem on a Tiscali broadband package with lineone e-mail addresses. Thanks to you guys, I have every piece of protection under the sun downloaded. You guys helped me to kill 'mysearchnow'. For that, I will be eternally grateful. So, I'm running Spybot, Ad Aware, Hijackthis etc. regularly. None of these can cure this problem. Is there anyone out there who hasn't started drinking yet? Happy New Year to the whole MajorGeeks posse: I suspect you guys keep the world turning.

    IS it disconnecting when you close IE?

    of so then open an IE window and goto Tools > Internet Options > Connection and find your connection and highlight it > click Settings > Advanced > and untick where it says "Disconnect when connection may no longer be needed" > click Ok > Ok > Ok


    or if its random check your modem to see if the connection led is flashing at the time as you may have lost the connection and the modem is DSL modem is connecting up again.

    Thanks for your quick reply but, no, my PC disconnects a lot when I am in IE. Once I close down IE, I can be online for hours without any problem. There's something inside IE that's ticked or unticked and I just can't work out what!
