Connection timed out (Error # 10060) question

[Phil]

Join the club. This started for me today after
downloading a XP upgrade. I unstalled the upgrade, but I
cannot get rid of the message. I thought it was related
to IE, but it is on any network such as wireless. Keeps
on coming. I think we will hear from others too.

There also is file named cgtask.exe. Search the registry for the key
and delete it and delete the file from the hard drive.
