May not be a virus, it may be bad phone lines. We've had similar problems. After several weeks of research, the phone company switched pairs of wires and everything came back up.

When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute and it's longer than any hour. That's relativity.

how are you connecting the 10 PCs to the internet? are they on a LAN with a switch + a router?
if so, how's the connection to the router?
a connection /network schematic and some more information may help.

check processes (ctl+alt+del) and look for dllhost.exe, if it is there you have welchia virus.
also check folder (win2000, xp) :
Windows\System32\Winsthe file you are looking for in that folder is svchost.exe
If you find any of those email me and i will help you out with getting rid of it.. spent pretty well all day thursday gettting rid of that virus

They are on a lan with a 16 port switcher. I am running my network on ISA Server. But nothing wrong with network connections, its the dialup connection on server which stops receiving bytes from my isp and then disconnect after every 3 to 5 minutes.
