I take it that you are using a dialup modem some ISP will drop the transfer of the web page if you have a real slow hook up and you have a FULL web page showing. It also sound like you may be a bit low on ram this will add to the drag as well. Try this see if you can hook up to a network and get on the net to see if the errors go away. You didn't say how much ram you have on board but you may want to stop some of the programs from running when you go on line with the Task Mrg. to see if it helps. Win2k Q and A Click Here C. H.
