meteore

Hi,


I recently d\l some updates for my HP printers and now when computer
boots up, the dsl modem takes longer to bootup and as a result the
windows messenger icon closes with a red X, before modem boots up..

Something has caused the modem to take more time.


I ran a disk defragmenter, which was not necessary.


I am running Windows Vista.


I can click on messenger icon and sign in manually, but why is it
closing before modem boots up?


Has anybody any ideas how to fix this problem ?


Thanks.
