When my copmputer is connected to DSL and I attempt to use a browser
(Internet Explorer or Netscape) or download my email (Outlook
Express), the computer hangs completely. Control Alt Del doesn't even
work. This does not occur when I am using a dial-up connection. What
is the solution for this problem.

My CPU is an AMD 1900+. My DDSL modem is an Efficient Networks 5360.
My operating system is Windows 98. I have tried reinstalling the
ethernet adapter driver, but I will try that again.
Don W.

If your DSL modem is connected with ethernet (looks like a "wide"
phone connector), your problem seems to be within the ethernet board
(either an add-o card or as part of your mainboard). Try to alter the
setting for this device and/or reinstall the driver for the network
adapter.

Go into safe mode , uninstall/remove the networkcard, shutdown, open
case, remove the nic if its not on-board. Restart the computer,
shutdown, retart for another 1 or 2 times. Install NIC in another PCI
slot and reconfigure your DSL/IP settings. I hope this will resolve
the issue

Hmm.  Wonder if 1donw1 is AWOL?
