Also, a friend of mine had a suggestion - based on the symptoms, it could be a TCP/IP stack problem. They recommended running Winsock Fix.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

I guess you could try that.

Have you tried shutting off your external modem, if you have one, unplug the power from it and wait about 5 mins., restart it. Do the same for your router if you have one.

Thanks. I have tried not using/resetting the router, connecting directly via the cable modem, etc., with the same reboot result. No external modem involved. I'll let you know what happens.

Tried running Winsock Fix, didn't seem to help or hurt things. Resetting the router and/or cable modem doesn't seem to matter either. If anything capable of providing an IP address is connected to the computer, it will restart within a few seconds of that connection being made/obtaining an IP address. Connecting a cable that is not connected to anything has no effect. Thanks.
