I was fooling around with the home network wizard and now my computer thinks I have a home network (I don't) and I can't access my shared folders. I have a Documents folder in the All Users subdirectory but I am unable to access it, even from my administrator login. How can I tell my machine that it is not networked and hopefully get my shared folders back? Thanks.

- 1. Behaves like no network, but NSLOOKUP works
On my XP/SP2 laptop, I can successfully -ping localhost -ping <anything else> -tracert <anything else> -nslookup <anything including myself> I cannot -ping my IP address (but 127.0.0.1 works) -use a Web browser (no proxy server, no firewall) No Internet applications operate. All return the generic "DNS Error". I verified -Firewall is disabled... -No proxy configurations exist -No errors show in the event logs -ipconfig /all... shows proper IP, gateway, settings -Routing tables (route print) duplicate what I expect and see on other systems -Virus free (per pattern file from last week) I tried -ipconfig /flushdns -nbtstat -RR -DHCP and fixed IP addresses, gateways, DNS servers -Reinstalling NIC driver... NIC continues to function normally -WinsockFix utility to restore bindings Still... I have no applications that can make an outbound connection to the Internet. Interesting... -MSN Instant Messenger diagnostics reports "Key Ports" failure such as with improper proxy or firewall settings. -Network Diagnostics tools (KB314067) fails IP address, suggests things I've already eliminated. I'm at the end of what I know. Any ideas how I can get my network back??? - 2. dsl connection
Ok, I just recentlly got DSL service hooked up in my house. However, we are not using indivisual modems for each computer. We are using a router to split the connection. The problem that I am having is that I cannot connect to the internet using two of the computers. We believe that one of the computers needs to be sent to the comamy to reconfigure the settings. But, the computer i'm trying to get to connect should conenct with no problems. Now the computer that works uses Windows NT. I'm using windows XP. When I click on the properites of the LAN connection, it displays the duraion of the time of the connection and says that it is enabled, so i assume that connection works through the jack. At my college dorms, they have a Lan conneciton there, and all I have to do is plug the cable into the jack and it connects to the internet with no problems. Is there anything that Ihave to do differnt here? I'm using Bellsouth Fast Access services, and i'm using the Zyxtel ADSL as my modem. For a better visual, I have all of the wires hooked up downstairs in a diffentt spot. So again, we are using one intial modem with multiple jacks to connect. If anyone can help, I would be very appreciative. Thanks in advance. - 3. SVSHOST.EXE EXCEPTION PRIVILEGE INTRUSTIONS

1.Lost ability to share network printer and shared folders on Workgr
Ever since I upgraded to SP2 I can't get my laptop to print to my desktop, which shares the internet with a wireless router. The printer connected to the desktop could previously be found as well as some shared files on the desktop, but not anymore ever since upgrading. I have changed all kinds of settings, even disabling the Windows Firewall, and all I can do is Map to shared folders on the Laptop, and not vice versa. Has anyone had this similar problem? My wireless network consists of a Linksys BEFW11S4, between a Dell Dimension 4600 and Inspiron 1100, which has a Linksys pcmcia wireless network card. Any suggestions? I get perfect internet access though the router, but it seems my network printing and file sharing access to the desktop from the laptop have been stopped. Thanks.

3.Windows XP laptop losing network connection to shared folder
We have 2 laptops with Windows XP on them. Both are members of our SBS2003 LAN and both are registered computers on the LAN. Have shared a drive on one laptop so that the other can access files on the share. However, each day, we lose the connection to the share. The laptops remain on all day and they are not logged off the network. Previously, when we reboot the laptop that has a mapped drive to the share, login and joila ...the share is available again. What causes it to lose the shared connection?
4.Help needed with NTFS and Share permissions on shared folders in W2K3 AD
I have 2 groups in Active Directory. One which will contain users who need to be granted Read Only access to files within a shared folder. The other group which will need to be granted permissions to modify and update file in the same shared folder. I do not want users in any of the groups to delete the shared folders that contain the files. I'm tearing my hair out over this so any help / suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks M
5.Vista having trouble with XP (Pro) Shared Folder
Ok, here's what I did: On my XP Computer: 1) Right Click on my "My Documents" folder and go to Sharing... 2) Click the box "Share this folder" and name it "documents" 3) Click the box saying "Allow users to change" blah blah 4) Hit OK. File sharing does its thing and all is good. 5) Go to Security and give "everyone" full control On my Vista Computer 1) Go to Run and type in \\neo\documents 2) Folder comes up 3) Browse to "My Downloads" folder 4) Open up any pre-existing file without problem NOW... if I download a new file, be it a video, zip file, document, whatever and then try to open it on my Vista machine through this share, bammo For a video through Zoom Player or Windows Media Player, both fail and tell me the file is either open or corrupted. AS SOON as I go to the XP machine, right click on the My Documents folder and go to Sharing, uncheck "Allow users to change..." and recheck it and click apply... XP does its thing. I go back to Vista and open the SAME file and bam, it works just perfectly! I've never had any trouble with this before, and my other XP machine is having no problems with the share... is there any reason why I have to continually "reapply" permissions to the XP share on XP for Vista to be able to open the file? TIA!
