Whatever you do, DON’T disconnect!

Oh yeah, and stay away from the windows...

There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture.

We are controlling transmission.

If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper.

We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical.

We can roll the image, make it flutter. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity.

For the next hour sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear.

We repeat: there is nothing wrong with your television set. You are about to participate in a great adventure.

You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to... The Outer Limits.

An overload of duplicate threads, as well as blog pimping and vanities posted in Breaking News is tipping the interweb on its face.

Yup, having a few problems although minor I ran CCleaner and my anti-virus. Didn’t seem to be any problem there, but yes some weirdness.

A few months ago when FR was having DNS problems, a workaround was to hard-code FR's IP address into the hosts file. Is it possible that if one's normal DNS doesn't work, that this would leave FR as the only accessible site (assuming the IP address is still hard-coded)?

use nslookup to find a websites ip address. Plug the ip address in the address bar and see if that works. There may be a problem with your provider.

from start menu type in ‘cmd’.
From the cmd window type: nslookup drudgereport.com
copy the ip address into the address bar.

This may work. It’s worth a try.

Using Opera I am getting a message on some sites, but not all and not FR, that says:

“Out of Memory
Either Opera ran out of memory or the process for the webpage was terminated for some other reason.
Try reloading the page, or navigate to another page to continue.”

I have never seen that message before. Very odd.....

I am going to sweep the computer with Malwarebytes and CC Cleaner and see if it solves the issue.

If anybody else has seen this message please let me know. Thanks!

My internet is quite bad. We are now on a satellite with limited bandwidth instead of a faster DSL cable, as was contracted. So,everything is very slow loading, if we can even reach the site. Ugh.

It was like this for over 1/3 of the year in 2016 and 2017 started badly, too.

The company’s excuse is “a shark bit through the underseas cable,” and “an earthquake caused an undersea landslide and severed the cable.” A smart company would have extra cable and manpower prepared for such an event, but Telkomsel in Papua, Indonesia is not a prepared, forward-looking company.

Our projected repair date is Jan. 27. I’ll believe it when it happens.

I cannot send email. I can receive some, but not send. I don’t know why. It doesn’t make sense to me.

My internet connection is working well.

In fact I'm getting tired of it working so well.

I would whack my LAN settings after a bad disconnect from a VPN login to work.

control panel\internet options\connections
select LAN settings.
verify that proxy server is not checked.

not much....good luck
