mac crashes when dialup is too busy

[bok]

Whenever my dialup isp is very busy and Internet Connect redials several times, my whole system crashes (see attached photo). The text says, "Exception state (sv=0x00336230) previously dumped as 'Latest' state, skipping" in an infinite loop. I have to turn off the mac to get out of this trap.

This has happened several times already. Anyone know what's happening?

There was a time, when I had to dial-up because Destiny was down, so I was on pre-paid dial-up. The same thing happened to me then. IIt happened a few times too. Same situation too, only on numerous redials. I never knew what the problem was though.

I found this while searching for a fix for my problem. Hope this helps.

How did you turn it off or reboot?

Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds or so.
