Satellite A200-12S - HTTP Internet disconnects
Posted: 21-Sep-2010 05:31

I'm searching for a help to solve my following problem:

I have a Satellite A200-12S on Windows Vista SP2, I'm facing a recurrent problem. When I am surfing on internet, I have suddenly been disconnected:
I have experienced this problem, with different navigator; firefox, ie, opera and with wlan (wifi) connection but also with lan (cable)

When this problem appears, I can "ping" and the connectivy doctor; say that there is no lan problem. My newsgroup software can connect to internet servers. It seems that only http communications are out. The only solution is to reboot my machine.

This problem has appeared a long time ago, perhaps since the update of vista sp1.

Hi saurel,

Hmm... That’s strange. I could imagine that a certain program is blocking the HTTP connection or you have a virus/spyware on your notebook.

You should run a virus-scan. Maybe it will find something. Good antivirus program is AntiVir for example and it’s freeware.

If you have any firewalls installed, disable them and test it again.

Thank you for your quick answer.
I will try a virus/spyware scan and the firewall/virus protection disabling when the problem appears.

In fact, it is my antivirus Avast Family edition which blocked internet connection.
When I disabled it, and enable it. The connection is restored.

Thank you for your advice.

I’m glad to hear that your problem is solved!

If you need another antivirus program, try AntiVir. I’m very satisfied with it!
