Using WinXP I can not load a page using the page name. However, using the IP address the page loads. This is true for firefox and IE7 and for two different networks.
To clarify further, typing www.google.com goes nowheres, typing 64.233.169.99 gets me google. clicking on any search leads to nothing.
Any other computer using the same networks has no problems

Microsoft closed a DNS-related security loophole that has been known since March 2008. The flaw would have allowed malicious hackers to redirect users to fake websites, even if they typed the correct address.

Microsoft's patch was released on 2008-07-08 to automatic updates. But many or all users of Windows 2000 or XP and the popular ZoneAlarm firewall found that they could no longer go online after the patch was installed.

On 2008-07-09 CheckPoint released an update to ZoneAlarm, version 7.0.483, that solves the conflict.

Hi

This has been driving me mad for the past few days........

Scenario: Two PC's both running XP Home Edition, both fully patched. Both connected to ADSL router. Both PC's are networked on a LAN and belong to same workgroup. Both have four or five shared directories all with Allow network users to change my file enabled.

Having had no problems with sharing folders on a USB drive round my small network, I had to re-install XP Pro on one of the PC's, and now I get the "Not enough server storage space available to process this command" error when I try to access the USB shared folders.

I've searched high and low for any info, but the only fix I've found for this - changing the IrpStackSize - hasn't worked.

Can anyone help please?

In some networks with Windows Vista client computers Remote Desktop can become excruciatingly slow or stop working altogether. If that happens to you, try the following command (as one line) in a command line window or as a Run... command on the Vista client computer:

netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled

If this doesn't solve the problem, undo the change with the following command (as one line), which reinstates the default setting:

netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal

Dear Windows Networking Community,

I very much hope someone can help with this one, as we're starting to go a little mad.

Our networking set up is WinXP SP2 clients to a SLOX (Suze Linux Open Exchange) domain server. SLOX is functioning as a Samba server and NT domain controller. Everything in respect of this set up works fine.

The problem is in Symantec Endpoint Protection 11.0 Client.
When I disable it there is no problem to access shared files.

Hi all,
I have a Dell Latitude laptop. I have installed Linux as well as Win XP SP2.
I performed a defragment of disc on XP. After which I rebooted my laptop and lost network connection for some reason.

I use DHCP, and the address I get is 169.254.xx.xx. Ping to 127.0.0.1 fail. Hardware and connection wise everything is ok, since I booted with Linux and I was able to connect to the internet.

When I do ipconfig /renew , it says : unable to contact DHCP server. Request has timed out.

I performed reset of winsock and ip stack on XP. Still problem remains.
