The past few weeks I get a lot of the same type of errors when opening Firefox or IE .... a page appears and says "Connection Interrupted" and below it says "your internet connection does not seem to be working" .... but it IS working! I refresh the page, and sometimes it will go ahead and load correctly, but half the time it won't. Doesn't matter what site I'm headed toward, half the time I get this error page!
Lately I'm also getting a lot of email errors that refer to sockets and one is like this:
"Socket Error: XXXXX, Port: XXX, [numbers removed] Protocol: POP.A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond."
We had a wireless router setup and just went to a wired setup, but I don't know why that would make a difference? We have four computers in the house.
It's like an alien is living inside my computer and sometimes takes control! I run all the virus protection programs I know of, but no red flags.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated!
