streaming audio error

Miles

Greetings! 2 problems (related?); any suggestions
appreciated:

1) I can log onto the internet & download
programs/email, etc., but I receive the following error
message when I try to listen to streaming audio:

"Internet Explorer cannot download ABC.ram from
www.XYZ.com. IE was not able to open this internet
site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot
be found. Please try again later."

2) My machine periodically gets 'stuck, ' where it
cycles for about 2 minutes before completing a command
(no response during this time to further commands, once
it gets 'unstuck' all the stored commands execute).

Background: Compaq 1800 XL laptop, P3 700 MHz, 256 RAM
with XP.

Trauma: machine was recently dropped, some Windows files
were lost that required a cold boot to reinstall XP. I
have run check disk/defrag multiple times (it looks OK
other than the 2 items above). Thanks, Miles.

Correction: I am not able to download programs (I tried
to re-install IE 6 and got the same error message...
