    if you have a cable modem, unplug the modem, and shut down the computer for about 5 minutes. then plug in the modem and re start the pc. my cable modem's MAC address does something wierd sometimes and i have to do this to get the network to "see" it. or i could be totally wrong! :)

    :) The problem was somewhere else. I had the w32.Spybot.worm all over my hd. I think thats what caused the loss of connection.

    I scanned with NAV in safe mode and installed firefox.

    Everythings fine now...for the moment ;)
