Re: Error message: "The Network Connections Folder was
unable to retrieve the list of Network adapters on your
machine."

Also, may be related, Explorer seems to take too long to
search system connections - problem seems related.

Any insight on to how to restore Network Connections
Folder immensely appreciated!!!

Philip Ashley, you are the man!
This fix restored my missing network connections
immediately.
I found a confirm at http://support.microsoft.com/?
kbid=254631, but probably would not have made the edits
w/o your encouragement.
Thanks a million!
