Problem with computer freezing while using IE 6

In case you're interested:

I had posted back in late March that I was having problems with a 7-
year-old IBM Netvista constantly freezing while using Internet
Explorer 6.

I sent the motherboard off to http://www.badcaps.net to have the
capacitors replaced at a cost of $65 for 'standard' capacitors.

This has been one of the best decisions that I've ever made. The
computer very rarely freezes now. Usually it's because there's a
problem with a particular website or I've got too many things open.

I just wanted to say that http://www.badcaps.net did really good work
for what's turned out to be a very reasonable price. There's no way
that I would have been able to purchase a new computer now.

Barb,

Thanks for the feedback. Sounds as if you made the right choice given
your financial constraints and now have a functioning PC again.
