Hello all sorry to piggy back on this subject, but I have also experienced a problem with my home network in the last few days. I determined that a 98se and XP pro machine need to have the network uninstalled. Do I have to uninstall all the components? If so, which on what machine? Or, can I achieve this en bloc?
