So once again, when You plug-in Your memory stick, your internet connection freezes, but when You plug it out the connection restores? Or am i wrong? :confused:

You are correct, and it is so frustrating. Except, only on mine, i carnt even open up a new IE window. It just wont open, even after i have pulled it out.

Can you solve the problem by uninstalling the flash memeory?
And can you exclude the possibility of infecting virus?

It just starts up on my computer.

This may seem totally unrelated to your problem, but are you using a firewall program? If so try setting it to "allow all" or turn it off just to see if it makes any difference.

It just starts up on my computer.prolly is that... had a problem with some scanner software and my parrell zip drive one time like that...

what kind of drive is it?... if it's a generic band type... that might be why too... poor construction...

I'm sorry i dont know what you mean, i have a scanner driver installed i think. And the driver i installed was....Mobile Disk V3.0, by TwinMos Corp.
If i put the USB stick in before my computer loads, everything thing works fine, but when i go to pull it out, my internet closes down. And i have to reboot to get it back on, with the stick out or in!
Any ideas!

Is there an icon on your taskbar when you have the memory stick in?
