How to remove My Network Places

[Guest]

I had set up a home network with 3 computers. If I need to remove them from
My Network Places, or uninstall the My Network Places, how should I do?

Hi.
If you do not want the computers to be Networked.

Unplug the Network Cables.

If you want to use the Internet from all three but not Networked the
computers as a LAN. Cancel the Sharing Disk Drives, Folders, Printer, or and
what ever else you share, and they would "Puff" disappear from the network
Place.

When I set up the Local Network, the Internet Connection Firewall is gone.
If I don't want to share the files and don't want the Local Network any more.
I unshare all files, and the Network Places is gone, but how can I bring the
Internet Connection Firewall back? Thanks

Hi.

There is new Firewall in WinXP SP2

Go to Microsoft updates. Update to SP2 and it will guide you through setting
up ICF again.
