Going crazy here. My neighbor told me she was
having problems getting on the internet a week
before I started having them. Getting on the
internet is easy, but when I try to click on a page, 9
out of 10 times a blank page will appear and say
“done” in the left corner, or error windows come
up stating “server not found”. Also sometimes
when I can get a page all the photos won’t be on
it. Getting my email, but it’s pointless if there is a
link.
We both use cable, she has a PC with a router
and we have Macs and airport. We have 3
computer in house and my husband says he's not
having any problems, but get this! he's on my
neighbor cable connect using some 8.11 code
thing on our airport. ( I'm not very "tech-ucated").
Please someone out there help me.
One more thing.....this is really odd, but I was
reading other internet problems in the forums and
one subject title reminds me of an email I opened
about the time I started having problems, BUT I
didn't download the picture because McAfee says
there was a virus. The photo was called
“nothing”, but I can’t remember the name of the
virus that McAfee stated. Hope some of you smart
people can help one challenged being.

It is possible that you have received a virus from your neighbours computer, since your husband is connecting to their wireless network.

You should run some sort of scan using your McAfee software.
