Err, yeah, I wouldn't be trying to access websites if there was no point to
them now would I.
It's actually one of the very best websites I know! It's fantastic. As Sunil
says, membership is restricted and they only open the gates every few months
until they re-fill their quota and then they shut down again.

>> Hi there,

>>
>> Some websites make my PC switch itself off and do a restart. This only

>>
>> I'll explain it a bit more in a second but has anyone else had this

>>
>> It's all to do with certain websites.
>>
>> Sometimes when I land on a website the computer will do a restart

>> websites, however, like the 'My eBay' section in eBay, it causes the
>> computer to restart when I arrow down to a certain line on the page.
>>
>> Also: I used to visit UKNova.com with no problem whatsoever until
>> recently. Now as soon as I land on the site the computer does a
>> restart. Interestingly here though I decided to delete all cookies and
>> I was able to look at the front page of UKNova without any problems.
>> TO use the service tho, you need to sign in. As soon as you sign in,

>>
>> I am confused and irritated beyond belief and the more I surf the web
>> the more websites I'm coming across that switch my PC off.
>>
>> Other things I've done is delete all the history. It did nothing. It
>> also didn't help when I upgraded to service pack 2.
>>
>> Please please please if someone can give me any ideas or insight into
>> what could be going on I'd be so immensely grateful.
