I’ve just sent you an email advising you to remove your email before I read the rest of the post.

It’s best not to include any personal details in your thread such as your email and especially your phone number.

I notice that you have used something called CleanWipe to remove Norton but run NRT just to ensure there isn’t any residue https://support.norton.com/sp/en/uk/home/current/solutions/kb20080710133834EN_EndUserProfile_en_us

Boot up into Safe Mode with Networking to see if you can connect then, if you still don’t have Internet after running NRT a couple of times – rebooting after each.

I’m ready to remove my thread in this forum completely since my son showed me how to configure the LAN device driver & the machine now successfully connects to the Internet!

The next time I rebooted, the problem went away.

I’m done with this thread.

MY subject title says most of it. I have some reason to believe the domain of the first account (sil.org, server = mail.jaars.org) interferes or gets the email first, then forwards it silently to the 2nd account, gmail.com. Reasons: 1, I do a Ctrl+U keyboard to see the source; 2, some times a SPAM Assassin (a non-free service which should be active only on input messages for the first domain) actuates on messages which I can clearly see uses the gmail.com account.
I assume I have either the Accounts Settings set wrongly or my Options set wrongly. Anybody have any ideas what I can change to straighten this out?

I believe this to be solved at this time.

I’ve never bothered to uninstall Java; It is always superseded by later Java plugins & not to worry. The others are a non-issue

:)I don’t know about sleep mode, but the Hibernation problem was solved by a complete reformat & install of all new Windows 7! Thanks for all of your suggestions! This was suggested by Dell. Should I close this thread & how do I do that?

I have discovered 2 more things: Sleep mode seems to cause the computer to shut down! Also, there’s some kind of hard disk error which may be the key to all!:confused:

if you go into your router setup there should be a page for your wireless settings. the channel your router broadcasts on will be listed. it’s my understanding that interference on that channel (whichever it is) is what causes this particular problem. hope this helps. as i said, this was a problem for several months until channel was changed. did this about 5 weeks ago and have not had a problem since.

Question…The wireless is for guests in the house, while the computer which has the problem is strictly Ethernet cable connected! Does that make any difference???

Thanks. I saved your suggestion off to try at a later date. I’ve got new memory chips. new MB & new hard disk coming, so my attention in the the meantime will be to save all data I can.

Had this problem with my westell router for several months. Finally found a post on a forum that I can’t remember that said to go into my router setup and change the channel the router broadcasts on, in my case went to channel 1. Haven’t had a problem since. Router is still set to sleep to save power. I also do not allow device to wake computer as it seems to me either option would defeat the purpose of sleep/hibernate. Hope this helps.

What does it mean “change the channel the router broadcasts on”

Good idea, but tried that, and it didn’t work!

Thanks for your reply. Someone else has suggested the same process a few days ago. At the time, I have done what you suggested, to no avail. From my observation while the machine is coming out of hibernation, before the “resuming windows”, I see a screen which looks like the entire machine has been powered off. Furthermore, this exact same machine came out of hibernate perfectly with a much older version of the 2Wire modem/router for about a year before it died in December 2010.

It’s been one of “those” days. I’m tired right now so if this is a idiot question please bear with me.

I like Firefox add-ons but I’ve never heard of the Force TL addon nor can I find it on the web.

Any idea where it is and how I get it?

Thanks.

It was not the Force-TL add-on. Search of add-ons failed to find it in Mozilla. Real name was Force TLS. See chrome://forcetls/content/upgrade.html.
