I performed the PING you suggested and did not see any timeouts...  The 
response times were in the 25-45ms range.

I am using the latest version Norton AntiVirus and checked to make sure that I 
have the latest updates (...I do).  I do a complete Scan of my Hard Drive once 
a week. Thx for the suggestion.-----Original Message-----

Typically, IP packet loss and trojans can cause these types of problems. Joe

Paul, This isn't limited to Windows XP, nor IE 6...  I'm seeing it with Windows 
98 Second Edition and IE 5.5 SP2.  I also see that there's no relationship to 
it involving the processor or memory.  I've seen it happen with Celeron, 
Pentium III, and P4 machines, just about all from Dell's OptiPlex line.  Same 
goes for memory, doesn't matter how much or how little, same deal. What I've 
found is....   that what you're describing happens when a user clicks on a link 
from Outlook (or other outside program) and it launches IE (the same goes 
with/in IE for links that open in a new window).  The window just sits there.  
In many cases, it doesn't even time out (just sits there looking like it's 
trying to load).  I had a couple occasions where I walked away for over an hour 
and it was still there looking like it's trying.  In many instances I can stop 
it and then just hit refresh and the page loads with no problems.  Other times, 
I don't have any alternative except to close the window (no stop or refresh 
buttons, can't right-click on the page/window). I tried scandisk, defrag, 
deleting temporary internet files, upgrading to IE6, Windows Updates, and 
thought perhaps Java was part of the problem (it wasn't).  So, I've run up 
against a similar brick wall to the one you've run into. Anyone else out there 
joining in this wonderful fun?

Subject: [mswindowsxp] Internet Explorer Web Pages Displaying Inconsistantly

 Has anyone seen any problems with Internet Explorer having problems displaying 
web pages inconsistantly? Basically, I see 2 problems:  1)The Page does not 
display at all - I get "The page cannot be displayed/Cannot find server" 
Error2)Multiple parts of the Web Page Icons and Text/Pictures do not display In 
either case, Usually, If I do a Refresh of the web page it will either show up 
ok or I will be missing parts of the web page (still...). I am using IE V6.0, 
DSL High Speed Internet Connection, Compaq Presario 1720US (PIII 1Ghz 
processor, 20Gb Hard Drive, 512Mb Ram)...   I doesn't matter what web sites I 
am trying to connect to, I have the problem the majority of the time (I have 
tried web sites like Yahoo, Microsoft, MSN, Google & others...)... I have tried 
reloading Internet Explorer & Deleted Stored Web Pages from IE with no 
success... Does anyone have any ideas to help me determine the cause? 
Thanks...Paul
