Helo Everyone!

For some reason Firefox is coming with "unknown error needs to close" when streaming live video (eg. youtube).

Also ; crashes and closes down if I try to download fies (e.g. microsoft Messenger or others); and crahses and closedown when I o to Tools-options-main.

Internet Explorer also crashes when streaming live video.

Any ideas???

Thanks.

Andres.

PD. Attached is a log file created by Hijackthis....

ohhh no it didnt attach!!
The page crashed when browsing for the file.

I guess I can email the TXT log file if is of any help.

Okay, this sounds as if it could be driver related, to do with your network/IP?

Have you tried updating to the latest drivers( or rolling back to the origionals )?
when did this start happening?
can you link this with anything you've done recently?

Cheers,
Jamey

Thanks Jamey,

I have checked and got the latest updated drivers for my network card and unfortunatelly I cant really link this to any particular event.

This problem started ocurring about a month or a bit longer ago.

...any other ideas??

My only other idea would be to post a hijackthis log and see if anyone finds any malware...
I used to have problems with firefox+XP SP2 and my ISP (talk talk) but they've gone since vista.... maybe contacting your ISP's technical support will shed more light on the situation?

Cheers,
Jamey
