Im having MAJOR problems at the minute,so I just wonder if anyone would have any ideas what it would be,everytime I log into the game,after a few secs my net status goes like this...

Then I lose UDP then Im outta da game lol,Ive never had problems before,my ping is usually 140ish,which is fine for me,(ADSL)infact I reformatted my whole hard drive today in case it was a virus or anything,but nope,is anyone from the UK having similar problems,maybe its a problem our side of the pond? Im about to tear my wool out lol,as I cant play for more than 5 mins,would help if I knew anythin about connections n stuff but I dont

p.s no anti virus runnin,

Hmm,..odd. You did a fresh format and it looks like that? That would say something is definately whacked on the Internet,..or you managed to get infected with a virus/worm before getting all the updates from Microsoft.
It can happen.

Yeah,the minute the reformat was finished,I installed my Zonealarm,and Anti Virus,then I downloaded all the Microsoft updates before installing anything else,Ill call my ISP tomorrow (BTopenworld) and find out if they having trouble in my area,if not, a muffled single shot will be heard from my house lol

the past week Ive been tortured with various virus,1st reformat went ok,but I got re-infested as I was getting MS updates downloaded,2nd reformat went ok,but same connect probs made me loose temper, hence 3rd reformat lol,its the same when I play Bf1942,I get 'connection interrupted' all through a game......
