Okay so the following things keep happening:

Pages half loading (as in the page has already come up,
little thumbnails and whatever begin loading, but suddenly
it just says Page Cannot be Displayed. I refresh and it
loads fine)

Stuff keeps half downloading (for instance streaming files,
they get about half way, then do nothing at all). I look at
the two little monitors in the bottom corner and nothing is
happening whatsoever.

Disconnecting and reconnecting helps for a short while, but
then it just happens again.

No, I got rid of that. All it did was lag. Piece of shit.

when i was on dial up, my connection always used to fizzle
out like that. After a while it works again, its really
strange. maybe the isp server becomes too busy?

I'll reinstall Internet Explorer 6 if I can. If I can't then
I'm just getting broadband, fuck this 56k bullshit.

well, for me, it would fuck up during one evening/atfernoon,
but a few hours later (maybe less) it would be working fine
again.

i've had none of these problems with broadband.... apart
from when performing a file search on soulseek, but that's
to be expected :D

try restarting your computer.

and no, i've had similar problems with T1, T3, DSL, etc. I
think it's a problem with the browser cache. Try deleting
all your temp files and history.

I had a similar problem that turned out to be a
misconfigured router at the ISP - small ping packets would
get through, but larger packets got dropped. I think it had
something to do with fragmentation - one of the machines was
splitting the packets into smaller chunks that were then
dropped. Or something. Ask Elusive about this kinda thing -
he da networking shiznit.

The snot eating techs made me walk through the usual
reinstall Windows networking shit before they would escalate
the call and have a look at their network. Argh. Never mind
that I had tried to access the net through two different PCs
and a router.

The next day the problem cleared up when they found the rat
that was nesting in their hub. Or whatever.

My first ISP ever was a piece of shit that didn't know how
to run their DNS servers properly and lookups would take
forever. I didn't stay with them for long. Now they are out
of business. HA! HA! HA!

Sounds like the connection times out, change the timeout
time! Oh yeah...
