Hello Facecon, and welcome to Vista Forums.

You might also manually check to make sure that the *Network
Connections*, *Network List Service*, *Network Location Awareness*, and
*Network Store Interface Service* '*_services_* '
(http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/59...vices.html)are set to
*Started* and *Automatic*. Sometimes restarting the computer afterwards
will reset the network icon as well and allow it to work properly.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Hi Shawn, in the above post my facecon, do you think there are lost of
spelling mistakes? I have never heard of such commands before...
