My browser stops working after 10 minutes. I can only get it back by
rebooting. No errors in the event logs. It just stops. I am unable
to connect a telnet session over port 80 as well. I am running XP pro
sp1. I have tried several different network cards and they all have
the same result...10 minutes of good surfing and then
BANG...nothing...I can set my watch by it....HELP!!!!!

It's a virus, probably the old Blaster (because of the 10' surfing time), or
maybe a type of the new Sasser worm.
Update your virus definitions and remove it with the proper tool, following
the instruction about "system restore".
