<p class=MsoNormal>Hi guys<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks for your tips.  I have extended my search to the
newbies forum too.  On top of what I’ve already done this is what I’ve
done tonight.<o:p></o:p></p>

program stops) after “LMN-LMN1.site.ja.net” at 146.97.42.62 –
I’m not sure what I was supposed to see here though?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I have Windows Vista with SP2.  I keep all my programs
up to date.  I am on broadband with oodles of memory – and
didn’t have a problem until 6 weeks or so ago.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Very frustrating.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Any further tips?<o:p></o:p></p>
