Being closed out variest. Often happens between 11 pm and 2 am and more commonly recently. No obvious reason for the closings, but I'm using Norton to maintain connection unless they close it. I don't expect a meaningful explanation ofYou have no idea WHY it lost the connection to the ISP? Did they contact you to complain about bandwidth usage or anything? How do you connect to the internet? Has that changed recently?

Restarted freenet last night. Slow to make contacts but by an hour later 62 were open and freenet seemed to be behaving nicely together with SETI running. CPU at 100% but behavior was what I now call "normal."
At about noon today I checked and data transferred was many megs and messages were at about 15,000 on two most active connections. Checked mail and came back about an hour later to find that SETI had transmitted results and was "not" maximized any longer. Then I realized that system seemed inactive. ISP had closed connection and I had some difficulty getting anything to respond. Finally after right click on rabbit in tray, I was able to open popup window and stopped freenet. Few things started to show apparent activity and I could then maximize SETI and it had completed about 6% of a job after sending and bringing down a new job.
I then reconnected and restarted freenet and function seemed to return. I checked the log and it showed a very long segment of failures. (Log was at about 2.5 megs.) Errors continued abundantly as I expected since contact had been lost from other nodes for some time. Shut down. (To do other work.) About three hours later I tried to restart, but experience little success. Log hung when I tried to work back through the log (problem here?). Finally shut down OS and restarted.
The apparent hang from shut down of ISP connection I had not observed
before (not to say that I actually know it never did). Is this common? Will freenet do this when only it is producing high CPU usage or could it
be because two programs were trying to work at maximum level (SETI &
freenet)? Should freenet not detect loss of internet connection and not go
blindly on with unsuccessful high usage? I would think that when finally
operating this should not be allowed to happen as ISP closure would
certainly not be uncommon with large numbers of nodes running (even if it
only happens with multiple high demands on CPU).
Recently checked thread usage and seems seldom to go beyond 700 even when system very busy.
Oh, 2KWin and Sun Java (recent). 256 memory. Dial up connection. ~18.6 hard drives capacity each of two(C: pretty high, about 1.5 gig open, D: with about 4-5 gig open). What else important?

why it is closed. When you are third in number of customers service is similar to when you are # 1 or #2. Who cares about loosing a few? Customer service with problems is seldom very useful.
Scam filter went crazy two night ago. Compacting file when requested blocked mail system inbound. I'm currently using a different "user acct" on 2KWin as all the browsers have gone flaky on the one I had previously used. I'm now trying out Thunderbird & Firefox which seem to work, but can't use Mr. Sid graphics except with E.I. or perhaps Netscape which is needed for Scans of Federal Census Page.
