Comp: Satelitte P200-1BA .
System: Vista Home Premium OEM with SP1 and last upgrades.
Internet Browsers: Mozilla Firefox, IE, Safari.
Router: FRITZ Box 7050.
Communicators: Skype, Gadu-gadu
Problem description:
After system booting - WLAN internet connection start automaticaly in next step commumicators are starting.
When I open any of my internet browsers - I can work with this browser only 5-20 min. After this time my browser activity stops.
I can't use any other browser - web pages are not loading. But - commmunicator Gadu-Gadu - still works properly.
I can start & stop communicator activity many time - and communicator still is OK.
But not browser - browser is hanging up.
I have to system reboot - this is the only way I can using again my browser and see any www pages.
I know that:
- i've tested dns - writtening IP in adres field in browser - does'nt work
- there are different ports 80-browsers, 8080(?) communicator - maybe vista blocks any ports?
- in command mode - adres pinging - without problems
- in command mode ipconfig /renew - without effects
- different toshiba - with windows XP - works properly and correctly
- mail program (outlook) is working properly
- after vista reinstallation - problem is back
Please, help.

Hi
You are using the WLan but did you notice the same using the LAN?
According to your posting the chat applications like gadu-gadu and Skype are automatically loading in the OS background.
In your case I would test if the IE and other internet browsers would hang without usig and loading gadu gadu and Skype.
Furthermore if this issue appears only using the WLan then you should update the WLan driver and should also check if the BIOS is up to date.
Sorry for this frugal proposal but as you probably know, its not really easy to say what causes this strange issue
