Posted July 26, 200717 yr Ever since I started using Vista Home Premium, I've had intermittant problems with my connections. Two or three times on the average day, the connection just doesn't go through. Usually I can make it work by trying again 2 or 3 times. If that fails, I can make it work by exiting IE or Outlook and immediately starting it again. I know this is not a Verizon DSL problem, because my wife, running XP, is connected to the same modem I'm hard-wired to, and she has no problems. I thought it might be a Norton 2007 firewall problem, but I've done everything they suggested with no lasting improvement. It's also not an IE7 problem, because on the internet side, I get the same problems w/ Foxfire. On the internet side the problem may have something to do w/ problems loading the advertisements wh/ come with Yahoo and other sites, since I often see these sites trying to load when the connection hangs up. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. -- SFB
