Net access problems...

I posted a problem a few days ago regarding net access. Here is an outline
of the problem.

IE7, Vista ultimate (sp1 installed)

IE Works great for about 15 minutes, then hangs. I am still getting the
same problem so I decided to try a different browser (fireFox) And i get
the same problem. Ok so it must be a problem with my net connection? well
no as I still can retrieve emails, post to news groups and even play online
games when IE and Firefox hangs.... so connection is not the problem, or is
it? what could be causing the browsers to hang? Firewall? still does it
even when disabled (ZoneAlarm) cable modem drivers? nope upto date.

I have now had so many problems with Vista I am starting to think it was a
bad idea to switch to it! never had a single problem with XP.

Big thx guys and Girls!

You might want to go over to networking and sharing discussion group for this
one. Be sure to list all of the troubleshooting procedures that you tried and
the order in which you performed them.

As a long shot you could phone your IP and see if they have any server
issues that would explain this occurance. It happened to me a few months ago
when my Vista IE crashed. Charter Communication verified to me that they had
some encryption problems peculiar to Vista Windows Live Mail. The problem had
lasted 2 days and drove me nuts. Like I said, it's a long shot.
