However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.

When it does this I can close that page and try and reopen IE6 but I get the same error. The only way it will work is to reboot and everything goes along fine for a little while, then I get the error. I can't even log off and log back in again to get it to work. I know my connection to the internet is okay, because I can still get mail in and msn messenger is working fine, just IE6 has died.
Does anyone know what is causing this or how to sure it?

Hi, for what it is worth (I'm no techie) I notice you are using PC-cillin. I was having the same symptoms, but getting a message it was caused by tmproxy.exe. So yesterday I uninstalled PC-cillin and reinstalled. I've been connected for over 5 hours today without the problem occurring so far. Fingers crossed. M

Hey guys i'm online from a wireless adapter on my moms pc because my pc(the main pc with the modem) is getting a page cannot be displayed error no matter what site i try to visit and it also shows a problem with the dhcp. Any of you guys got a working link for that hijacker thing so i can get you guys a log and maybe we can find whats wrong with my connection and maybe fix it? This thing is driving me crazy, I haven't been able to use my pc for like 2 months now it's so upsetting. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.
