 I have a bug/virus/worm on a Win98 machine
that disconnects my DSL every seven minutes.
Like clockwork. I have run the latest version
of Norton and it finds nothing.

 Has anyone heard of this, and if so
what is the cure?

  PS: This machine had been hit with the
Trojan WindowsBomb recently, but it was removed
by a professional. And Norton doesn't find
a trace of it, either.

   (I know this is the wrong group to post this,
but I don't know of another)
