Re: Go figure...

Not only is it annoying but it can stop the PC from working.
I had several calls from users who could not access the Internet anymore. Tried several browsers and none would work but they would ping to IPs. No FTP no Telnet, no HTTP.

DNS was working and they had proper IPs.

Reinstalled the first PC like that because it was the only way I could get it to work.

I was finally able to find out the problem though.
A registry key that was supposed to point to Wsock32 was pointing to newdotnet.dll

If anyone is interested, I'll dig up the exact location of the key. I exported the reg key to a file that's on another hard drive.
