Try to view network properties and system fails

[Frank]

When going to network properties and selecting one of the
network controllers the systems closes everything and the
following message shows on the application log:

Same problem here

I'm also having issues with this same machine and accessing it via its UNC path, although rdp and ping work fine... I thought NetBIOS's acting up has something to do with this issue.

Was there a definative answer for this problem?

Since upgrading to service pack 4, I have several servers doing the
same thing.

You should run Drwtsn32 and see if you are getting any DUMPS from Explorer.
I would suggest posting this error in the Win2000.Applications news
group to get a better response. This is not a networking issue, it is the
shell crashing on you.

Thank you,
