    :mad: It is very annoying. I'll tell you my problem first then my PC's stuff.

    Well, I can surf the internet ok, and everything is fine. But if i say, try to have a MSN messenger voice conversation, or start netmeeting, I get disconnected! It also happens when i play Worms Armageddon online, or Graal online but NOT when i play red alert 2 online.
    I don't know if it is my Computer, or my ISP. I have a feeling that there is an option somewhere that i can change to fix my problem.

    I have NTL always on 128k broadband, that goes from the modem in my digital set top box, to my USB port. I have windows ME, and my connection is annalysed by CorrectConnect.

    Can someone Pleeeease help me??? :confused:

    Trim your startup menu, remove any programs which you no longer use, update everything which can be updated (drivers, DirectX, etc) run Scandisk, run defragmenter and then cross your fingers.

    ok, i'll try that. P.S does it have anything do do with proxy?

    As it says:
    PROXY: DISABLED
    DNS: DISABLED
    DHCP: ENABLED
