2000 internet lock up

[Fritz]

Using 2000 Professional w/office '97 Professional.

Everytime I go the internet at some randon point in time,
the system locks up totally. I have to shut off at main
power everytime.

Sometimes it locks up almost immedialty, other times like
right now i have been on for at least ten minutes
(amazing) and no lock up yet.

We bought two identical used PIII computers, both hooked
to a T1, and this one (mine) lockes up, the other one does
not.

Amzingly when this first happened, the computer shop
replaced te whole CPU. Same problems. Replaced with a 3rd
one, same problem!

I swaped the cable connections at the wall, and this
computer continues to lock up.

I use Yahoo as my opening web browser and the other unit
is using MSN....and no Office '97, as this is my personal
copy from an old home unit.

Any ideas??????
