    Default Internet Connection Freezes Up

    I hope that this is the correct place to start this thread. But anyways, here's the deal.

    For some reason or another, my internet connection just freezes up rendering my ability to game/surf/download off the internet impossible for about 30-60 seconds. After this freeze up, I can once again surf/download/game until the next time it occurs.

    This has never happened until this past week, so I immediately think its something to do with trojans or what not so I then go on to use the spybot tool to search and destroy countless stuff. The only exception being the malware called command service. Using the instructions given in the dlee1964 thread (posted 2006-07-27, 15:27), I was able to eliminate it. So now when I run s&d it finds nothing critical (I forgot the extact phrase it states). However, the problem of my internet connection freezing up still exsists.

    At this point, I truely don't know what it may be and hope that someone out there may know what it is, cuz I have run outta ideas.
