My problem with dropped connections started several weeks ago. Linksys Befsr81 router, Motorola cable modem, with TrendMicro anti-virus. Three other computers on the same router do not lose connection - only ol' reliable (or used to be) win98SE machine used only for email. All others XP. Only configuration/software changes were installation of anti-virus updates. Disabled TrendMicro. Only difference was faster rendering of web pages until the connection was lost - about 20 minutes. Even tried going back to IE instead of Firefox. Whatever is causing the connection to drop doesn't care which browser.
