I am getting this with nearly every site that I try to access. I have never had the problem before and haven't changed anything but my ISP which is a local company. I know several people with the same ISP including my business office. They are a fairly reliable ISP. It's "Zoomtown" from Cincinnati Bell. This problem has been consistent for weeks........sometimes better.....sometimes worse, but always very frustrating............ANY ADVICE ON WHAT TO CHECK FOR IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. Feel free to contact me outside of this forum at jjck2727@yahoo.com .

I would try dumping your temp internet files/cookies/etc.
In IE7:
Tools (in the top menu bar)->Internet Options->Delete->Delete All
In Firefox:
Tools->Clear Private Data
That will usually take care of that kind of problem.
Hope this helps. :)

Couple of things could be causing the problem>
1. Firewall -- If you have a third party fire wall like Zone Alarm, Disable it and try again.
2. Browser Helper Object (BHO) Trojan.
Run a complete anti spyware scan and anti virus scan.
3. Use the Ping Command to test your internet connection. Ping www.google.com -t and watch it for a few minutes and see if your connection drops out.

Quite often if you enter that question in your browswer and hit the enter button websites will come up that would probably answer that question...Also...have y ou tried calling your ISP and asking their tech people??

Try to change your DNS. Contact your ISP for more accurate detail.
