okay, I am not at all techie but can repeat to my hubby any suggestions.

We run on a network. My husband's computer is the main server and we have my computer and two laptops accessing the 'net through the network (adsl).

For some reason this week all of the computers EXCEPT the main computer are having a weird and highly frustrating problem with connecting to websites. The problem appears to be fairly random. For example, I will have no problem loading the front page of yahoo.com but when I try to click any of the news links or the sign in link it will crawl painfully at the bottom of the browser and never connect. I've had it where on my own domains I can access one page fine but then I can't access another that is in the same directory and which I know is there. It is happening all day and really slowing me down. It was annoying but now I find one of the sites I can't load is comission junction so it is now a matter of importance.

We have virused scanned, spyware scanned, etc. The problem happens with both IE and Netscape. We don't know why this would be other than guessing it may have something to do with proxies. We are running XP.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
