Lost connection to the network

[Nick]

After running a scan on my system today, I lost network
connectivity. There were 48 items removed, but I can't
seem to get the machine back online. These are the
problems I see:

1. ICF service is not started.
2. Trying to start it gives error 10047: The address
requested is incompatible...something.
3. The network card shows limited or no connectivity with
an exclamation point.

Email me if you need more info.

Microsoft has a brand new KB document on just this issue, which should
resolve it quickly for you:

Yep, the document appears to address my issue, however, I
already ran the XP Fix utility from the thread below
(which appears to be for VB programs), and it resolved my
problem. Thanks for the reply!

 

[Bill Sanderson]

I'm not sure which thread you mean--but there are a number of ways to fix
this one--glad you got it going!

For XP (and I have heard also for 2000 but haven't tested
it) the best solution is the free program winsockxpfix.exe
which you can get at:

http://www.iup.edu/house/resnet/winfix.shtm

it will fit on a floppy so you can get it from a friend's
PC.

For earlier models of windows try:

lspfix.exe

I also lost my internet connection. I have XP but not
SP2, I tried both of these fixes and still no connection.
I tried a system restore to just before downloading, but
nothing has helped. Should I uninstall the spyware?

 

[Ron Kinner]

OK. You ran WinsoxkXPfix.exe and it didn't help?

Do you connect with a dial up modem or with a DSL or Cable
modem or company Ethernet?

Start then Run and then type
cmd
and press enter. That should open up a new DOS-like
window.

Type the following with an Enter after each line.

ipconfig /all > junk.txt
ipconfig /release >> junk.txt
ipconfig /renew >> junk.txt
ipconfig /all >> junk.txt
nslookup att.com >> junk.txt
exit

Now send me the junk.txt file as an attachment.

Also

Get HijackThis.exe from
http:/www.tomcoyote.com/hjt/HijackThis.exe

Save it then Open it and SCAN your system then SAVE LOG
and send me the HijackThis log as an attachment.
