after installing some new software and windows updates, i get cut off the
internet randomly and when requesting secure sites.
i run xp sp1 and ie6 sp1. a long time ago i had installed xp sp2, but had
so many of the symptoms i have now that i reverted my harddrive using goback
from norton's system works 2003. here's the chronology:
-installed norton internet security 2004 after service pack 2 revert. no
problems.
-upgraded to norton internet security 2005. no problem.
-upgraded norton system works from 2003 to 2004, no prolem.
-started installing windows updates (after declining xp sp2). at some point
PROBLEMS. i don't know what update did it: i was foolish enough to do a
rapid install.
i have gotten on some secure sites by adding tls 1.0 to security tab in
internet options. but still can't get on others, even at&t's email, which is
not https.
probably more than you want to know. thanks, green jean
 
i should add to my question above that 2 sites that i can't access are
windows update and this board. (i'm writing from my old pc.) is this a clue?

thanks, green jean
