Can any body help please.

Upgraded MSN Live recently and now I get a horrible little news pop up in bottom right hand corner of the screen - where can I turn it off ?

Torrent - Using BitComet on desktop, but I cannot then use internet on laptop connected wireless to the router.  Only downloading one torrent at a time, but IE or FF will not open a page in time no poker site will connect on laptop.  I have capped my upload rate, downloading at about 70kbs average.  Have 1meg BBand - anything I can do or is it just a bandwidth thing.

Any help appreciated.

There is definitely an option to get rid of the popup in the options somewhere because i got rid of it.
Though i had so many problems with WL i went back to an earlier version.

The lappy thing is odd, i would guess config problems.
Do you have full access if not downloading?

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

Sounds like the DNS lookup is failing. Check the TCP/IP properties of both PCs, to see what addresses they are using for the DNS servers. Windows XP should be obtaining them automatically (are they both on XP?).
Treewalk is a good bit of kit if you have network problems in windows, very good.

Cap your download rate as well. 70KB/s isn't too far off maxing out your connection. And what have you set your upload limit to? I'd have done 10KB/s or maybe a bit less.

You can turn off MSN Today by openning messenger main window. press the ALT key to bring up the menu, go to Tools -> Options, General, then the 4th checkbox down for me is 'Show Windows Live Today after I sign in to Messenger', uncheck this box and click OK.
