I didn't meet this problem until several days ago. Can
someone tell me what the problem is?
System configurations:
Windows XP, IE 6
I updates Windows regularly. I update antivirus software
and scan my computer regularly.
I access internet from our university LAN.
Symtoms:
After I launch IE 6 and browse internet for a while,
suddenly webpages just can not be downloaded and I get
a "page cannot be downloaded" error message. (I can see
in the status bar that IE tries to connect to the IP
address of the website before the error message is
shown.) Then IE cannot visit ANY website outside of our
university. (I do be able to browse perfectly the
university's web site.) I shut down IE and re-launch it,
it still doesn't work. The only way to make it work is to
restart my computer. Then it works again and the problem
occurs again. I use netstat -n, it shows that the
connection like this:
TCP 128.xx.xx.xx:3455 207.xx.xx.xx:80 SYN_SENT
It looks like that there's no response for this SYN_SENT
package, so the connection hangs there and eventually
times out.
I first suspected that IE was not configured correctly,
but I ruled out this possibility later. Then I suspected
it was system software failure or virus, so I formatted
my computer and reinstalled the system, but it didn't
solve the problem either. I then checked the hardware and
found no problem.
Does anyone know what is wrong with my computer?
Thanks a lot!
