browser issues
 

about half an hour ago my internet connection died for about 5-10 minutes. after it was reestablished, i can not see any graphics or ads on any of the sites that i visit. ex: on this site i cannot many of the banners that should line the right margin of the forum pages. also, i cannot see any sort of streaming video. anyone have any idea what the problem is?

Re: browser issues
 

1st, restart the computer
2nd, try an alternate browser... Opera/FireFox
3rd, download hijack this and run it, remove anything that looks fishy

all for now, report back
