Unable to read URL from host g.msn.com: Connection reset by peer

[patrick]

hi all...when iam on msn home page and i click on a link,
i get "network error : Unable to read URL from host
g.msn.com: Connection reset by peer".........with a white
screen. I use adaware and spybot and IE6.0.2800. What is
going on? sometimes open in a new window will work,
sometimes not.

This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware, parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
