Hi all
I'm currently living temporarily in a house with a pc on dial up!
1. When on some websites that i post on forums & i get knocked offline, i click back online & the post i have written has been saved! One in particular doesn't, it loggs me out & all i write has been lost. Why is this.
2. That particular website i get knocked offline regularly on & have to reboot to create a stronger dial up connection, like if i've been on the computer ages, the more chance i have of it beeing knocked off!
As soon as i get knocked off line, i get a box saying "socket error (hash sign) 10053 software caused connection abort.
Can anyone explain this.
Regards
Gary

I have AVG, so i duno!

Did you read the entire page?

This error also appears when sending mail in outlook when using AVG antivirus!! This can easily be rectified by going into the AVG e-mail properties - then "servers" and making sure that you activate the SMTP setting as it is set by default to disabled!! Easy as that!

Most of the entries I saw on Google seemed to relate this error to e-mail servers and AV programs. Have you tried what Mouse quoted from my link yet?
