| Hi!
|
| I try to download the 10mb update to the .NET framework but it fails
| instantly and won't let me get the file. Also my internet is now being stupid
| all the time only accessing certain websites and instantly not accessing
| others. I've reset the modem several times. Any ideas why it's doing this as
| I never had this problem before! =(
