techguyone,

I am very grateful for your suggestions.

I have tried running a single cable from the back of the Virgin Media HUB to the offending PC with no other PC or printer connected to the HUB and the problem continues. The Win MTR stats are similar.

I suspect that the PC is the problem. I have run AdAware and Norton 360, reset IE8 to default advance settings and uninstalled and reinstalled the network adapter. I went to PC World (always a challenge) and spoke to the tech guy there who was stumped but did not think that buying a PCT ethernet card (the one in the PC is attached to the motherboard) will help, and besides they did not stock them.

Oi Vey.

Is this time for a new PC? Nothing I can rip out and replace?
