connection settings don't include a way to turn on Windows XP's
built-in firewall.

| I'm in the same boat! After upgrading from Win2k to
| WinXPPro and shortly after connecting to the Internet, I
| get this message that "The system process terminated
| unexpectedly with status code 1073741819. The system will
| shutdown and restart. Then, upon reboot there is a message
| that says LSA Shell (Export Version) encountered a problem
| and needs to close.
| I didn't see anything abnormal in the event viewer.
|
| Anybody else encountering this problem?
|
| Thanks
