Ok peeps, i am completley useless at things like this but i got a problem with my internet.

OK i am on broadband, and when ever i look at a web page my comp will try to refresh the passion ford shoutbox auto refresh thingy that apears in the lower task bar, even if i am not using passion ford, it does it all the time even if i am on pf, and is really annoying cause it is making my connection as slow if not slower that dial up , and makes the threads stop scrolling and it appears to lock up until it refreshes, proper pissing me off

Does anyone please know how to remedy this problem or got any advice i can try to sort it out ???
