Re: Problem?
I'm with gooner on this one - I'd suspect an IP conflict.
I've noticed XP has this irritating habit of assuming it can have the same IP it had last time on bootup rather than actually waiting to be given it's IP address. This regularly results in either mine or my wifes laptop complaining about IP conflicts on boot up. That said it usually sorts itself out straight after.
Are you using fixed IP or DHCP? What types of downloading are you doing?
