about the connection i have ADSL connection, i am behind a router
which connects to the computer via ethernet
the router IP is 192.168.1.1 and my computer ip is 192.168.1.3
i uninstalled mozilla and firefox and konquerer and installed them
again and same problem happened.


i installed CrossOver office professional and installed internet
explorer 6 on it and it worked fine with all the sites, and the most
wierd thing is the browsing from internet explorer under linux is
faster than browsing from it under windows and faster than browsing
from konquerer and mozilla on my linux box.

any advice ?`?
