for some strange reason which l attribute to the firewall lm getting random net issues which completely block the net.. lve went into game mode on the firewall but it only helps a little and l see an amazing amount of dropped packets in 5mins
nothing has changed apart from one windows update, but it happened a couple of times earlier in the night, my laptop however hasnt any problems access the net to browse (l will note lm on win7 pro, issue occurred with both Firefox and IE)
l note that this page crashed twice and lve had to write this a couple of times due to it.. and will likely have to wait a few mins if not more to just post this message.
