pls hlp me !!! when i'm loading an internet page, and the internet activity stops from giving me data, the browser stops responding untill the internet data flux is back again. it also hangs when i open more then 3 tabs. any idea on what to do ????

most likely your ISP, check your routers status light to see what is going on there, if ur using dial up then there is a reason too. are you using opera 8.5?

Is it the browser or the network that's the problem?

While it's hanging, can you still access the menus and options without any problems? If so, then it's a problem with your network settings. Try reducing the number of connections to a server and the total connections (under Tools->Preferences->Advanced->Network).

thx for your help. the problem was bitdefender 9. i've installed bitdefender 8 and it works just fine

lol, yep, that would do it. u shouldnt run it if ur just browsing.
