Have you added a PCI card recently?  What kind of Internet connection do you have?  Cable with PCI ethernet card?  Dial-up with PCI modem?  What else is running when you try to scroll and get the freeze up? If something else is running, even an ISA card, it could cause this problem.  Check device manager for conflicts with your ethernet card or modem card for starters.  Check your mobo manual to see which PCI slots share IRQ's.  If you have recently added a PCI or ISA card, remove it in device manager or disable it to see what happens.

>I have an HP Pav 8750 Pent III, 667mhz,196Ram running Windows 98se with IE5.5 & OE 5.5. The problem I am having is with freezing when I am surfing the net. When I am at a site and start scrooling the computer freezes and I have to re boot. This does not happen all the time but often enough to be a pain in the a--. I finally got mad and formated my machine and re loaded my OEM disk and set everything back up, went on the Internet and low and be hold five minutes into being on the net, it FROOZE! Can anyone tell me what could be causing this and what to look for to solve this problem short of smashing it with hammer.
