I saw some old posting about this with no solutions, so i start a new topic.
XP SP2 latest WU, no other issues at all, latest Kerio/Sunbelt Free FW, latest Avast Home.
A few months ago i started having random issues browsing: IE6, IE7 or FF, all of them can browse OK for some time on any kind of web sites, but all of a sudden the "Waiting for.... reply" appears in status bar and pages freeze/stall. Sometimes F5/refreshing works, sometimes Shift+F5 works, sometimes refreshing can work after a lot of times or after a complete cache emptying and browser close, sometimes it's dead until next reboot.
I also have a Vista inst. (dual boot) with Avast and Windows Vista firewall and it has no problems. But it's not Kerio, read down.
Downloads do work as expected, FTP works as expected: it seems to affect HTTP/Browsing only. Terminating Kerio doesn't help.
I had no ideas left after months of this crazy/random behaviour, but today i terminated (not paused!) Web Shield: the web page immediately starts to download, without having to do anything. Even previewing this post was frozen until i killed Web Shield!
Could u pls help?
Thanks,
Ale
