Hi Franni,
I was rather afraid it might be 'virtual occult' and a mystery
beyond the reach of science and technology ;-). Sometimes
restarting a browser does work, but mostly I have to restart the
computer to bring it back to working. Even unplugging the
ethernet cable and reattaching works from time to time.
I was wondering if anyone had a take on the logic which must be
at play, and so lead to the possible cause. Just possible that
it has to do with software conflict, but there isn't that much on
the laptop which I am trying to keep to one project at the
moment.

When I used to use IE on one of our macs it did that all the
time -
quitting the browser & restarting it always solved the prob but
it was
a pain.

I am used to the wierdness of the digital world, however some
things seem
bizarre even by those standards ;-).
My Dell Inspiron 1300 likes sending and downloading mail via
broadband,
indeed almost chortles with delight. However after a short
time [hours to
a day] it yawns and ignores all requests to access webpages,
pretending a
cable is unplugged, even while it merrily downloads, uploads
and
investigates mail.
I suspect his has to do with ports and consequent docker
(stevedore)
strikes. However I cannot see how to sort this out. Of
course, your
experience may tell me there is osme other fault - browsers IE,
Firefox and
Opera are all in on this conspiracy.
Windows IE diagnostic usually claims a wire is unplugged, even
while mail is
downloading!
Many thanks as always for any help.
Joseph Harris
