I installed a ClarkConnect box into my system : I'm using it to 'filter' the web / system interface

adsl router ---> ClarkConnect ---> 16 way 100 Mbps switch ---> various boxes {XPPro / 2KPro / Fedora core 3 / Ubuntu}

problem is that the CC box is causing problems on SOME sites :

AO is fine
any other forum is OK

BUT - on them, any animated avatars do not animate .... and here on AO, when a post is extremely pos / neg, it does NOT flash.

some sites {Ladbrokes for one} I get little windows that pop up to inform me that there is a fault in the load up, and as such the page may not work correctly, and I get the icon in the bottom left to confirm that it is loaded but with errors.

and I have also lost the ability to open Outlook, the error message reads along the lines of -


Task 'mail - Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC90) : 'Your incoming (POP3) e-mail server has reported an internal error. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP). The server responded: -ERR AVG POP3 Proxy Server: Cannot connect to the mail server!'
and the ISP home page {Virgin.net} does not load at all.

so far I've 'upgraded' to the office 3.2 version, and things are better, but I still have the same basic faults......

any help, ideas would be appreciated
and I have been Googling for answers, and there is a CC forum but so far I'VE been unable to figure this out ..........

I have removed CC, and gone through the ipconfig/release then /renew to allow the adsl router to set the IP's, and without it the problem has gone, so it IS in the CC set up, I just don't know where .........

and to just remove it is not what I want to do, I want it to work


TIA
