You have "Client Service for Netware" or this machine has been connected to
a Netware server, try to remove/uninstall this service from your Network by
doing this:
1- Click Start >> Control Panel >> Double click Network and Internet
Connections >> double click Network connections then right click your LAN
and select properties then under general look for Client service for Netware,
highlight it then click Remove, click [OK] and reboot your machine, does this
help?.

If you don't need the Novell NetWare Client to connect to a LAN:

Start > Network Connections > Right-click on the desired connection >
Properties > General > High-light the Client Services for Novell >
Uninstall.

Neither does Andrew. He's one of our resident trolls. The only time
he posts useful or even relevant advice is by accident.
