When I host my internet disconnects *****STILL NEED HELP*****STILL NEED HELP*****

I got ADSL, win98, no firewall or network stuff, when I host a game after about two minutes my internet locks up (it shows the internet is on but ICQ don't work or going into sites, nothing works it's as if I am offline already) and only way to reconnect effectivly is to restart my computer.

ADSL && Windows && !firewall = h4x0r3d

Seriously, you need a firewall if you're running windows, even on dialup. If nothing else, get ZoneAlarm as it's free. Also make sure you've got a virus scanner - the problem could be due to a virus/trojan/worm.

Someone basically looking for computers to hack and who found yours somehow.

Get a firewall, get Spybot and run it often (every couple of weeks at least).
