Explorer crash - Network connections

[Ivan Bútora]

Hi all,

I have three network connections set up in my computer - Local Area Connecion,
one dial-up connection and one VPN connection. When I open Network connections
in Control Panel, then go to the Properties of either the dial-up or the VPN
connecion and click on the Advanced tab, Explorer crashes with an error. This
does not happen with the LAN connection.

I am not sure since when this has been happening.

My system is Windows XP Professional SP3 with all latest updates.

Here is the error information, copied from Event Viewer:

Any ideas?

Thanks for your response.

I did try running the command, and it executed successfully. However, the
crashes still persisted.

Following what "joe joe" did, I deleted and re-created the two connections which
gave me problems. The crashes now do not happen anymore.
