lost internet settings windows xp home

[rexy]

can anybody help please? Ive just spent 6 frustrating hours trying to recover
my pc system. Having downloaded a security program from my isp supplier my pc
crashed and although I have recovered the pc it appears that whatever hit me
has scrambled my internet connection settings and I can no longer connect. My
win.ini file and system.ini files were lost but through your pages have
managed to recover them. No matter what I do I cant seem to get to a place
where I can reinstate my internet settings. I know I am connected because i
am writing this on my laptop which uses the same modem so i believe that side
is ok. Where do I look? where are they hiding? system restore doesnt help ca
n anybody out there ??
thanks

No, we can't. This is a .net developer newgroup. Not a 'how do I use
windows' newsgroup.

May I ask how you found this forum? We've had a slew of odd questions in
here as of late.

sorry, when i used the drop down menu i was amazed at how many different
groups there are, and i just picked one that said general discussion, can you
advise on where to list my query?

MOst of these newsgroups are for developers. So, I can't really suggest any
of them for this particular question. I'd suggest hunting down a good
windows discussion forum on the web.
