Host service???

[Andrew Marin]

Every now and then on Windows Vista Buisness edition 32 bit My host process
dies causing aero to turn off , and my windows wireless process to die. I
would like to know if there is a fix for this seeing how It seems to happen
when Im doing something important on the internet .

Cheers, Andrew Marin

1) How are you determining the HOST Process is dying? What are you IDIng as
a "Host process"?

2) How are you connecting aero turning off and a "host process"?

Well Chad as I send to you in email, I get this error message saying windows
host service has died (im going to screenshot it ), and it tells me that it
will alert msft next time Im on the internet. I click ok then aero turns off
and if I go to a web page I get sorry your not connecting message something
like that. Then I diagonose the problem with windows on why i can't view
wireless networks and it says I don't have windows wireless service on , so
I click start it and my internet starts working again , and in about 20 sec
later aero turns back on. I know how to solve it , but it seems to appaear
when Im doing something important (imagine that lol).

We both know I think about the "Host file" buried in System 32 in Windows..
But I can't make a connection to it with a windows wireless service or Aero
Glass so any detail on all your error messages would be greatly appreciated.

In services there is no Host or Windows Host service. Are you using a 3rd
party to help put up your websites that could play into this?

Run SFC from an elevated command prompt. Type cmd in search above the start
button>then right click cmd when it pops up>type sfc /scannow at the cmd
prompt. It often corrects IE connect problems.
