i have fixed the problem i cotacted my internet provider and they told me to follow these steps and it fixed the problem thanx u for your help and time Very Happy

a. To clear the Browser Cache simply do the following:
1. Close AOL
2. Click on the Start -> All Programs -> AOL -> System Information
3. From the System Information window click on the Utilities tab and now click on Clear Browser Cache.
4. Close the AOL System Information window

b. To close background programs on Windows XP
Hold down the Control (CTRL and the ALT key together. Now while holding these press once (and once only) the DELETE key. You will now see a screen called Windows Task Manager. Click on the Applications section.Here you will have a list of every application running on your PC. Click on on an application to highlight it and then click on End Task. Task Manager will stay open so you don't need to keep pressing CTRL + ALT + Delete. Once the Applications list is blank close the Windows Task Manager by clicking on the X in the upper right hand corner.

c. Can you please close AOL fully then choose Start - Programs - AOL - System Information - Utilities- then choose Rebuild Adaptors
