More like 15 seconds! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

The anti garbage software I was using "expired" without notice; hence the problems. I've done what you guys are suggesting, but a "dll" problem persists. Persists inspite of downloading software expressly intended for ridding dll based spyware problems. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

The one thing that works without fail, is the offer to buy new $oftware!

On the cable front, Comcast is "aware" of the problem.

Thanks for all your help.
