509202 2006-12-24 09:50:00 Try installing Firefox and get rid of IE7 and see if that helps. winmacguy (3367)

Is the connection to your Laptop OK? If it's only your desktop that's disconnecting, check your network cable. Swap it with your laptop cable - provided they are both using cables and not wireless.

Cheers :)
