After Windows update and install of Spyware beta, XP
firewall won't start.

ERROR MESSAGE:

[SERVICES]
Could not start the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection
Sharing (ICS) service on Local Computer.
Error 10047: An address incompatible with the requested
protocol was used.

I am relaying this message from someone else, so this is
all of the detail that I have. Thanks, David

David;
Start/All Programs/Accessories/Command Prompt
Type "netsh winsock reset" ENTER
Follow prompts and reboot.

Then IMMEDIATELY run an updated virus scan.
Then run AntiSpyware again.

This is not caused by AntiSpyware.
It is caused by the Spyware that has been removed
