Browser stalls driving me crazy... Need help.

[Roveer]

It seems like since I've been upgrading and patching windows that I
now have a condition that I call "browser stall" I start a IE
Browser
and go to a website (could even be google.com) and it just sits there
"connecting". Open other browsers or tabs and they all stall at
connecting to other websites. Sometimes they bring up the website in
seconds/minutes, sometimes they stay stalled forever. Close them all
open a new browser click on google.com and it comes right up. This
happens on different computers at different times. My boss started
to
show me this right after I brought his machine to SP3. Sometimes
opening a new browser would clear the stall, sometimes the new
browser
stalled as well.

Any ideas on what the problem is here? It drives us all nutz...


Thanks,


Roveer

Please also post in the Internet Explorer newsgroup.

You will need to test the IE when it is loaded with "No Add-ons."
Access this from the Accessories --> System Tools "group."
