if you can't update profiles anywhere then you prob have cookie control set too high. r-click on IE applet and go to privacy and lower the security a notch. Better still, join the real world, abandon that Microsoft freeware rubbish and use a proper browser like Mozilla or Opera (how many times have i told you this?) and watch your IE related problems disappear. Esq and I have told you this countless times, it's not just being techy smartasses, I used to use IE too onvce and know how pathetic a browser it is.
uploads (ftp?) and email issues, ordinarily I'd say ISP because these are p-word dependent. have you at any point discussed this with your ISP? I appreciate Chief M'wezi Umboto doesn't spk to you anymore since you killed his pet lion, but you could apologise and give him a gift of a roll of brightly-coloured cloth and some beads.
it's also possible that if your using anti-virus you've blown off your server settings; for example Norton AV sets up a local proxy server for e-mail to scan incoming and outgoing mail. This sometimes results in your normal pop and smtp settings getting knackered. If you're using OE then this moves up the probability list. Again, I recommend abandoning the MS rubbishy free e-mail client, and using something more robust like Mozilla's e-mail and ng client.
it isn't memory.
it isn't connection.
it happens on both pcs, which is indicative that it's wrongly set up or that something common to both machines has altered settings, either through ignorance/accident, or through something more malicious like a viro or Trojan.
or it could just be you and your dark female energy destroying machines. I've seen that before. Mrs Taw destroys electronic cash registers. Everyone one she goes too breaks or spews out rolls or won't swipe the card (without fail - that's why she takes twice as long as me to do the shopping) and I've seen my friend Mandy walk down the street in a strop and every streetlight she goes past has blown. truly, I'm not exaggerating at all. Women are walking EMP devices.
