This does not make sense at all.. Machine does not throw virus.. OS does
not detect virus. Internet can black out for various reasons. It looks to me
like you are in a LAN environment. I do not know how the internet is shared
between machines.. but the likely culprit is the internet sharing rather
than virus.
I also faced similar problem with Sify, some years ago and I dont think its
because of virus, the Sify client sends some information about the OS to the
server. There in the server side they have an option to enable the clients
to connect from windows by default, only if asked they will enable the
Linux , may be it sounds crazy but thats what i experienced. if you change
the Linux distro again this enabling thing has to be done. may be talk about
this stuff to someone in the customer care. may be try this cheap trick,
connect to the server using windows client, remove the cable reboot to linux
and try browsing.
Bye,
Krishna.
