Very strange and annoying problem Ken. I have to say I have no such issues with the internet and I run a wireless connection with a netgear wireless ADSL modem/router. I'm running XP Home Edition and IE7. Are you sure this is a service pack 3 issue though? Have you tried uninstalling service pack three and then connecting to the internet without it to see if the issue goes away?

Only slight issue I have with SP3 is that it doesn't seem to like "spamihilator" which is a little spam eliminating program which "integrates" with outlook and outlook express. I guess microsoft don't like third party programs "integrating" with theirs!

Hi Will,
Tried all options.

Strange thing is my dughters PC is virtually identical and loaded SP3 with no problems.

I think here must be a hardware issue but after trying 2 different wireless adapters with the same result I'm not sure where this is.

Nex tmove is to hard wire the connection to see if the problem persists.
