MN-700 Connection Problem

I have read many of the posts about the MN-700 dropping
connections and have tried almost all of the fixes,
however, I have something a little unique, perhaps? After
being on the internet for a short while with a Windows ME
computer with a wireless connection, the MN-700 drops the
connection. I know this is the case because the XP
computer also cannot connect to the internet after that.
When I reset the base station, everything is OK. The XP
ethernet connected PC does not cause any problems - it
seems to only be the ME wireless computer. Of interest
also is that the base station seems to lock-up only when
the ME wireless computer is accessing certain websites!!
It will get into those websites initially just fine and
then after a couple of minutes - connection is lost.
However, surfing Yahoo and running movie clips and games
works fine.

Does anyone have any ideas on how the MN-700 can "lock-up"
and require a reset from a wireless computer only
accessing certain websites?

Thanks in advance for any help

Additionally, an example of one of the websites is

What websites exactly? The developers who monitor this group would
need to know this information (and I'd be curious to see if *I* could
duplicate your experience).

It happens on neopets.com and amazon.com so far. Also, I
have had the base station for several months and it did
not do this at first. It is only lately that this has
happened but I cannot think of any software I have
installed just before this started.
