Hello guys, my internet has been down (and crawling at dial-up speeds at times) but finally back online. Comcast was no help and offered to send over a tech this Saturday.
Of all the programs that was causing havoc, it was my antispyware program doing it. My subscritption expired yesterday morning on Counterspy and ever since then, my internet connection got all messed up. Don't know how this can be related or not but I uninstalled it and everything went back to normal. After having no internet for nearly a whole day, Im relieved to get it working. Stupid Counterspy bug. That's why no one uses it. I'm going back to traditional Spybot Search and Destroy.
Anyways, if I'm ever online in here, it's usually in the evenings and stay up pretty late. Right now, school's out for me so I'm flexible until Sept. 22.
