If I deactive this progam while online my computer no longer crashes. I have been online today for 6 hours and I havent dropped once.

    This is very strange. I have a P4 running at 3gig and 1 gig of memory. So what the hell is going on. Any other ideas guys ?

    Which CPU you have? If you have Intel Pentium 4 Prescott then you are in great trouble. Prescott boil easily. Default fan on Prescott is problematic.
