Strange Problem

[BrianB]

Any ideas what might cause this. I will be browseing the net and everthing is fine then sudenly any page i try will give me an error. My connection is still up as CS:S and google talk are still working i just cant browse, i close opera and open it and still nothing, so i try IE and nothing i reboot the PC and it works perfectly again. This occurs randomly (not that often, maybe 2 or 3 times a month) on my PC as well as my parents. We have the telkom 4 port router. Oh and if i reset the router it makes no difference.

You tried to access the address .......... , which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.
Make sure your Internet connection is active and check whether other applications that rely on the same connection are working.
Check that the setup of any Internet security software is correct and does not interfere with ordinary Web browsing.
If you are behind a firewall on a Local Area Network and think this may be causing problems, talk to your systems administrator.
Try pressing the F12 key on your keyboard and disabling proxy servers, unless you know that you are required to use a proxy to connect to the Internet. Reload the page.

You need to add the proxy's to your server setting.

Thanks I will enable them again, i disabled the proxy settings because page loading was faster without it.
