Hi

either a virus has disconnected my internet or a mmber of
the house hold has tried to relaod XP home this has
resullted in only being able to acess broadband on one of
the dialouge boxes when attempting to reconnenct to the
ISP. the box only highlights the broad band connection\
\can this be reversed or do it need to reformat hard disk
and reload all of the programms realising that any updates
have now all been wiped if the XP has been relaoded.

i think a system 32 file was missing and the children
vould not load SIMS so that may be the kids motivation.

regards

Hi wayne :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:

Download, install and run LSPFIX from any of the following sites:
http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm
http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html
(if your OS is Win2k or XP) The process of removing certain malware may kill
your internet connection. If this should occur, this program, LSPFIX, will
enable you to regain your connection.

Also, get a copy of WINSOCKFIX available at:
http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html
and
WinsockXP Fix- WinXP
http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html
Also, with instructions, at
http://www.iup.edu/house/resnet/winfix.shtm
also
From LavaSoft- all versions of Windows-
http://digital-solutions.co.uk/lavasoft/whndnfix.zip
also ....
(NOTE: It is reported that in XP SP2, the command netsh winsock reset
will fix this problem without the need for these programs.)


If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps

Jan :)
