Re: Internet Browser fate every 5 minutes

Hi

-Have you tried a different browser at all?
-Did you recently install a new version of IE?

When you say "it can't display any page thereafter", does this mean the pages turn blank or that they don't load-up anymore, i.e. no connection found?

Yea they're basically the same thing.

So, when you get this browser problem with IE, have you tried refreshing the current tab and seeing if it reloads up just fine?

Have you deleted all your cookies/temporary files/history recently?

It would be worth a shot.

Re: Internet Browser fate every 5 minutes

Well, you should do and then restart the browser to see if it's any better.
