IM's and random Disconnects.

May 22, 2005 10:58AM PDT

Over the last few days my messengers have been randomly disconnecting. It doesn't matter if I use Trillian, or the latest verson of that messenger's actual software (AIM, MSN, Y!).

Has anyone heard of a new IM virus going around? Because the last time or two that I've had this problem that was it. I even reset my router and modem ''just in case'', and that didn't solve it.

I'm useing Windows XP SP2, Behind a DSL modem, and a router, Useing Bellsouth . Any other details wanted, just ask.
