SP2 and Lost Internet
Installed SP2 and could no longer connect to internet
through my router. Only way I could make it work again was to use System restore to get rid of SP2. I turned off (or at least thats what the system indicated)the Microsoft Firewall as I already have one, but never did get internet connection (IE, Mail, Chat, no nothing)to work. Could talk to my router (using IE) though, so at least some local network I.P. protocol communication was available. Any suggestions other than swith to Linux? |

First thing I'd try is to uninstall the third party firewall, then try again. If that doesn't cut it, have a look at http://www.michna.com/kb/WxSP2.htm for a list of possible causes.
