    internet connection
    « on: November 08, 2011, 08:00:17 AM »
    Recently my internet connection has begun to disconnect after a very short time connected. I have tried all the cable connections, blown all the dust out of the computer. Defragged and done a tune up all to no avail.
    It seems to have occurred after an unsolicited message appeared on the screen whilst it was unattended for a short while. My security system had blocked (netsession_win exe) and asked if it should allow or continue blocking. Not knowing what it was I told it to keep blocking. What is it and do I need it.

      You might want to give this article a glance as it could possibly have relevance to your issue.

      If indeed this is a the basis of your issue it sounds like a malware infestation and your assistance will come from the people at the CH "Virus and spyware forum"
      It looks as if this is a very current phenomenon,truenorth
