The Service Pack 2 firewall is Crap, if your trusting your Computer to it, your a fool. And even if you had all the Spyware/Malware/Virus Cleaners/Scanners/Blockers that have been released, still doesn't mean one couldn't slip through the cracks.

Is MySpace the only site you have issues with? (you might have said before, but I can't remember)

Possibly a problem with your Flash (or Flash Plugin if your using Opera/FireFox)

EDIT: As for Heat, what makes you say that? BG find out people was doing "bad" things like last time, Lol. Maybe he just wanted it up long enough to tease, or just maybe.............. the CD is gearing to drop! :O Haha, my guess is option A. :\

so what firewall would you recommend? preferably a free one, yea myspace is the only site i have problems with and it's nothing major, just havent been able to hear that BG track. it just stays buffering

Well, The Windows Firewall IS better then nothing, it's just a very simple one. Like for instance, it only monitors incomming ish, so if something was to slip by, there's nothing stopping it from broadcasting out. And really... trusting Microsoft to keep you safe, that's a gamble in itself.

As for FREE Firewalls:

Kerio
Sygate Free
ZoneAlarm Free

I've heard all three of those be spoken highly of at Computer Oriented sites/boards. I personally use ZoneAlarm Free, never tried the other two so an't really comment.

Though as for your MySpace issue, I'm not exactly sure. Now that I thought about it, it can't really be your Flash of the player shows up and Buffers. I'd suggest trying a different browser and see if that does the trick (unless you've already tried) as I know I used to have a similar problem with Opera before I switch over to FireFox.

The best one I use and never have any problems is Mozilla firefox

yea i read that was a good program and that IE7 was basically an improved version of that, but i'll try it anyway. that can be ran on top of IE right?
