Ok here are the system details, XP Pro with the newest updates running behind a Di-614+ router. It is hardwired to the router. Norton Pro 2004 along with adaware & spybot search and destroy to protect me.
Now the problem:
I have 3 PC's on the network, 2 wired 1 wireless. My computer is one of the wired. Some sites will not load up, along with msn messanger not connecting. None of the other pc's are experiencing this problem. I have had this problem in the past and randomly it will get fixed. I have even reformatted in the past in order to fix this problem, however even after the reformat the problem was still there. I am really unsure what is going on, i reset the router and still nothing. Its only my computer, the others are 100% fine and clean. I can connect to some sites, but not others, i think it is having the packets dropped (when i look at the router log it says "smurf attack packet dropped"). I thought it might be my ethernet card so i replaced that but still running into the same problems.
Please help
Thank you
