Your computer, you should have total control over it.

I just made a bogus gmail account for whenever I need an email address to sign up for message boards (besides this fine website) or other services. That account now gets thousands of spam messages a week. Gmail filters out about 70-80% of them automatically, but since I never check it, nor use it for anything important, it doesn't matter! Now, my personal email address stays spam free. Don't have to do anything, really.

My laptops wireless just randomly shuts down and when I try and turn it back on it says my computer doesn't have any a/b/g wireless cards supported/found. So I have to shut down my computer for a while (for probably 30 minutes). Then when I turn it back on, it's fine again. I am guessing it only happens when the laptop gets too hot because it usually happens when I'm sitting in the living room watching TV. Anyone know how to fix this, and should I look into this with IBM/Lenovo?

What type of wireless card? USB, PCMCIA, internal mini-PCI?

Where do I find this at?

Edit: Under my Device Manager --> Network Adapters it shows these:

11/a/b/g Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Adapter
1394 Net Adapter
Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet

And yes, everything on this laptop is internal.
