Work Offline Issue

[Brent]

I have two systems (one wired XP Pro/one wireless XP Home)
connected to the Internet through a Linksys router and a
cable modem.

Since I have installed the Anti-Spyware Beta, I frequently
get a message when I connect to the Internet saying that a
connection could not be made and receive the option
to "Work Offline" or "Try Again". I click "Try Again" and
it connects fine.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Yes--this is a performance issue that some users are seeing. Are you seeing
this on both machines--or only one of them?

This occurs on both systems. It typically happens when
the system has been idle for a while, then try to access
the Internet.

Also, I have had occur it on log in...I had a shortcut in
my startup folder, which starts IE and navigates to
Yahoo. I get the "Work Offline" message every time in
that case.
