Any ideas what's causing this? It's kept fully up to date. _____________________________ "My strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it" Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Blood, Sweat & Rust - A Land Rover restoration project

I run spybot and adaware (for what that's worth) checks daily and AVG updates itself daily AND does a full check daily. Nowt came up. I'd also like to moan about the fact that since I've removed IE7 from my laptop leaving IESick in place it now drops it's connection all the time again like it used to. Also, everything's really slow today. Also, I've fogotten to take my "medicine" again apparently. _____________________________ "My strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it" Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Blood, Sweat & Rust - A Land Rover restoration project (in reply to jaybee)

You could always remove IESick and use AOL instead. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype? (in reply to Tailslide)

Just a suggestion: disable the AVG firewall then enable the Windows firewall. Good luck _____________________________ Larry M.

I ended up ditching it and switching to BitDefender firewall/AV. No probs since (and they gave me a three month extension to my licence yesterday for doing a survey on what I thought of the software ). _____________________________ ~~ "A cruel god ain't no god at all" ~~ (in reply to Larry M.)
