They seem smooth in terms of malware. However, the problems persist. Yes. I was actually about to post a couple of new screenshots to illustrate the problem before I saw your reply.
I've been using Opera for the past week or so since I uninstalled Firefox. Just half an hour ago or so, for the first time, I had the same exact problem happen in Opera as what used to happen with Firefox.
First this, when I opened Opera. Instead of going to the website, it just keeps popping up as if I'm trying to download a file...
After F5 refresh, this appeared and would not go away despite repeated refreshes...I eventually rebooted.
Up until this point, the only problems I had been having with Opera was occasional distorted images. This was a problem that had occurred in Firefox too. But today it was back to all the other issues I had been having.
In other words, it's the exact same problems that I've had since I first started this thread weeks ago. IE7 also acts erratically (but I rarely use it...). Despite all the tweaks and tests, they remain.
The only difference, I'd say, is that the glitches aren't occuring as frequently as before.

This seems highly unlikely but I've seen defective NICs cause some very strange problems. Perhaps you have one laying around or can borrow one from a friend?
Another possibility would be to disable UAC for a bit and see what affect that has. Enable it again if not affect.
See here: http://www.petri.co....ndows_vista.htm only the entries are Disable UAC and Enable UAC, not UAP as shown in this article.

Not really. Seems pretty drastic. I doubt that's the problem since I've been able to get online in different countries (continents, even).This may sound weird, but what about trying a different network card? If the one you have is onboard (built into the system board) add a PCI NIC. Disable the onboard and use the PCI NIC and see what happens.

Question for all tech team members:
It there a master log file for the entire computer? The entire system? I was thinking that if I make note of the time(s) when my PC becomes unstable (3 reboots so far today...grr), this might help pinpoint the problem?
Whenever I try to get into the task manager once my PC becomes sluggish or freezes...I get the same error message:
Logon process has failed to create the security options dialog.
Failure - Security Options

I wonder if there is a conflict between the remaining Acer programs/utils that I have and one of my security programs?
Also, do you recognise this error message:
Logon process has failed to create the security options dialog.
Failure - Security Options
Is it from Windows or from Acer?
