Connecting to a Web site takes too long
Many factors can affect Internet performance:
■ The condition of the telephone lines in your residence or at your
local telephone service
■ The condition of the Internet computers to which you connect and
the number of users accessing those computers
■ The complexity of graphics and multimedia on Web pages
■ Having multiple Web browsers open, performing multiple
downloads, and having multiple programs open on your notebook
People are sending you e-mail messages, but you have not received
any mail

is set up correctly. Contact your ISP for technical support.

might be stuck, then restart your notebook.
