Internet just exited out??vista

when you say "internet exits out" do you mean to say

- your IE window suddenly closes

- or you get disconnected from your internet connection

if it's just your IE browser, then you need to check on some settings on your browser and your connection settings too. but if it's the actual internet connection itself, my next question would be what type of connection are you using. is it a dial-up or high-speed like DSL or WIFI?

dial-up access has an idle time set that if a user is idle for a certain no. of minutes, the server disconnects them to the internet to give the bandwidth to other users.

as for the high-speed, same hardware-software factors are to be considered. it might be that the modem or router is faulty. or you have EMI's that greatly disrupts the wireless signal sent out. location can also be an issue because the farther you are from the remote terminal (central office that is the source of the dsl signal) the less chance you get to optimize your connection to it's fullest.

i hope you can provide more details so i can provide more specific answer. anyway, i hope this helped.
