I think it's not addiction it's just you trying to put off working. It's a common thing.

its called Interent Addiction Disorder (IAD) and is very common you should learn to limit yourself to so much internet access a day, it can be very addicitve especially when you are new to it, chat rooms seem to be the biggest culprit.
its no good being addicted to anything, it does you no good!! someone i know had a business go bust cos she spent so much time chatting on the internet.
it is very addictive, try and get out of the habit a bit.
the addicitve side of the interenet is usually the first stages of using it, hopefully it should go past that and you return to a normal level of internet usage
also the internet is now the biggest cause of marriage/relationship break ups.... for obvious reasons
good luck
there is a book id recommend, its called 'caught in the net' i think its by Kimberly S. Young
also check out theses sites... a bit ironic really having web sites for internet addiction

Anything that stops you from doing your normal routine and interrups your life is an addiction.
