  1. hey all, I seem to be having a problem accessing my hotmail account, it appears to have something to do with my wireless connection. Basically, in my house there are two main computers using a belkin router, mine (Wireless) and my parents (wired). Sporadically, i have major problems accessing hotmail, i sign in and the browser apparently wont find the mail server. have tried with all four browsers, chrome, Firefox 3.6.6, safari (newest) and i.e.8, and when it not feeling like it it wont work on any of them! Also have tried using outlook (with connector) and windows mail programs and they wont
  2. Hey guys, I've been having a problem with my start-up on my PC. I have a dell Core2 Duo E4500 @ 2.2ghz with vista business sp1 and 2gb ram. my computer keeps freezing for about 4-5 minutes when i boot it up, once i've entered windows and the desktop comes up and it begins to load my various tray programs. Currently these are AVG 9.0, Comodo firewall, Spyware doctor - free version, i've disabled sidebar and msn, and recently switched out avira antivirus as it always appeared to be at that point (avira starting up) that it would freeze. Scanned with avira, avg9, spybot and spyware doctor - cant
  3. disabled everything, just tried to run it again still wont work along with various install programs i downloaded like avg 8.5 also avg 8 wont display its console (test centre and whatnot)

  5. oh sorry, disabled everything, just tried to run it again still wont work along with various install programs i downloaded like avg 8.5 also avg 8 wont display its console (test centre and whatnot) i heard about the tweak on various boards when i was researchin. and yes it used to work fine on the wireless connected machines
  6. right as far as i can tell your malware guys, dont think i'm infected. i've heard about a possible MTU router tweak that could fix this. what is that and how would i do it? i just updated the firmware last night and still no joy. still no face book on any machine with a wireless connection to my router, but the hardwired computer still shows it normally
  7. after the fix it wont let me run security check as it is not a valid win32 program same thing when i tried to re-install my comodo firewall
  8. all posted under same topic heading in malware bit
  9. gone searching for firmware upgrade .. apparently isnt one

  12. If you don't know if you're using OpenDNS you probably aren't. This seems rather strange. The computers that are able to access Facebook, do they have all the same programs, etc installed? For example, did you run CCleaner on those machines? I've seen CCleaner remove stuff it shouldn't occasionally. And to clarify, this only happens on Facebook? No other site at all (currently)? B yup only face book, one of the machines doesnt even have ccleaner so it cant be that
  13. Screen shot would definitely be helpful. If you can find a way to provide one that would be great. Nonetheless, what Firefox plugins are you using? Can you access the site using Firefox (Safe Mode)? Also, do you use OpenDNS? B dont know. how would i find out? right its definitely a wireless issue, as all 3 computers that have a wireless connection are experiencing the same facebook problem (1 uses vista, 2 use xp, and all of them use different versions of fire fox) where as the only computer that uses a hardwire connection has no problem at all

  15. i also used to have a similar problem with wikipedia, but that seems to work now
  16. unfortunately no to the screen shot basically i get a blank white page, and the green progress bar bottom right gets almost to the end but never really does. If i stop it loading the page it comes up with most of the text, but the spacing/fonts pics are all wrong, like its in basic html mode or something silimar. and i dont use adblock plus so cant be that
  17. well hard wiring it to the router is a bit difficult, but i have tried it on another wireless computer ... same issue
  18. right well i've now also reinstalled adobe flash player and shockwave. still same problem
  19. Its not an isp cos another computer which uses an ethernet connection rather than a wireless in the house is fine with facebook. Whereas my comp is on a wireless conection to the same router. so what could i do to my wireless connection to see if it worked?
  20. scuse my noobness but how to ping please? and yes i went over the temp folder with CCleaner, and SUPERANTISpyware
  21. My IE doesnt really work any way ... but that was from like a year before facebook stopped working
  22. oh and i've also tried runnin it on google chrome and safari - still same problem
  23. basically, I'm running firefox 3.5 on a vista business machine, and Facebook wont load up properly. If it loads up at all, it looks like its being run on a pre windows 3.1 kinda machine. This happend once before and it was some kind of virtumonde thing. But this time i've scanned with spybot, spyware doctor, Malwarebytes, and even avg has had a crack, still no improvement. I've disabled all the addons for firefox, and i've cleaned out the cache. i've even had a clean with the new version of CCleaner. still it wont load right. I'm now annoyed, so before i throw my pc out the window, someone ple
