Mysterious IE6 Session Freezes

Dear All,

I have been troubleshooting this problem for nearly 2
years. Basically whenever I am dialed into any ISP, I can
surf the net for 5 minutes or so, and suddenly my session
freezes for a minute, and then resumes communication with
the internet.

I have completely rebuilt my PC from scratch, ie
overwritten windows directory etc, installed a different
modem (was Zoom V.90 and is now Diamond V.92).

I have extensively checked for virus or spyware which has
all been cleaned, but fault still persists. Initially you
would think it is just the modem retraining, but I must
point out that when IE6 freezes, I can still communicate
with my mail servre via the same connection, which would
elliminate the re-training theory.

Please has anyone seen this or can help ??
 
the only things i can think of would be malware, trojans
or another program running or trying to run.
 
It sound like a modem.

All modems tend to do that.

Also, the call waiting beep may cause it as well.

You can disable call waiting or use a modem on hold program.
