• Power Cycle your DSL Modem - Unplug your DSL Modem from the electrical outlet and let it sit for one minute. Reboot your computer and plug your DSL Modem back in.
• On Dial Up or on DSL, try rebooting to see if this takes care of the problem. (Always write down any error messages you are receiving)

We highly recommend keeping your software current, which can help keep your computer virus-free. Updates and patches are available and easy to install; but there are no alarms on your computer that will alert you when you need them. Instead, you will need to visit the websites of the software you own, including your platform software.
To update Windows with a patch or service pack go to www.windowsupdate.com. Upon visiting the homepage, your system will be automatically scanned for the recommended Windows update. Then, choose which patch you want to install; usually recommended.
To find updates and other fixes, you can also visit www.microsoft.com/downloads and click the Windows (Security & Updates) link on the Download Categories menu.
In place of having to manually keep your computer updated, we recommend SecureIT Plus. Not only is it a security software program, but it will also automatically install platform, spyware, virus and firewall updates.
