My strange computer.... by Kafman on 06-18-2004 at 10:17 PM

Ok, this happened a Thursday, one month ago, my computer has cable modem and that thursday, I couldn't enter to the forums and to other web sites (like mess.be) well, finally, I turn on my computer and today everything is fine!!
What could be the problem?:P
I tried to check for a virus, a dialer, a trojan, an adware, etc, and I doesn't found anything.
Strange isn't it??

While were on the subject..... I've had broadband modem a few days and I keep getting disconnected. But if I restart my PC, it's fine again. I keep a connection for a few hours usually..... what's that about?

Trouble shooter says it's lose cables, but thats wrong :S

There could be a constraint in your NIC access code that only allows access for ____ hours.

Call your cable internet provider - they made have had some technical issues during that time. They would be in a better position to help.

You were right Chris, they have problem during that time, because they were "updating" the system:P
