How are you connected, directly to a cable/dsl modem? Dialup?

Have you checked to make sure you don't have any of the latest viruses (Slammer, sobig)? Are all your OS updates, patches up to date?

Double check your NIC settings. If you're on Autonegotiate, or its equivalent, try changing it to 100Mbps Full Duplex, or 10Mbps Half Duplex. If no effect, change back to Autonegotiate.
