Control Panel-Network Connections shows a Blank Page. Previously showed
Dial-up Connection and LAN Connection. Dial-up indicated the status of
connection, connected/disconnected and connection speed. After a short
period of time with the blank page, a window pops-up-NETWORK CONNECTIONS
FOLDER WAS UNABLE TO RETRIEVE LIST OF NETWORK ADAPTERS ON YOUR MACHINE. MAKE
SURE NETWORK CONNECTIONS SERVICES IS ENABLED AND RUNNING.

Network Connections Services is in Control Panel-Administrative
Tools-Services(Local)-Network Connections. Attempted to start service got
Error Message 193:Oxc1, Could not start Network Services on Local Computer.
This Connections Service powers Windows Firewall which is down and will not
start while the Service is disabled.

Can anyone help?
