Hi Nancy,

   It's possible that your computer could be infected by a virus, spyware
or malware.  Such infections have similar effects on computers by
limiting a  person's ability to connect or stay connected.

   If you can connect via another computer, do a search for Ad-Aware SE
v1.06, Spybot - Search and Destroy v1.4, and AVGFREE 7.0.  All are free
programs: AVGFREE is an anti-virus program and the other 2 search out
various spyware, adware and malware infections.  They are very effective
and will rid your computer of those problems, should they exist.

  Once you have scanned and cleaned your computer, try a connection again.
If you still can't stay connect, we will have to dig deeper and look at
your settings on your computer, which occasionally get skewed.  I would
suggest the scanning first as those infections (particularly the spyware)
can be especially troublesome.
