Thanks. I agree because I have seen these problems on networks I have had 
some control over. Unfortunately I have contacted my ISP in the past about 
this and no dice. They are also the only people to provide broadband in my

for the first time and I didn't realize what I was missing! Thanks to 
everyone for the help!

Justin.
