Internet connection will stop working if my computer is idle for as little as 5 min. Screen goes white with clock running (loading) and eventually I will need to stop the process just to get the desktop working again. A second problem: autofill of contacts on my email (Yahoo!) have stopped populating when I compose a message. This still works on explorer.
