You may want to try the cable connection sequence.
1 - power down your PC.
2 - power down your cable modem, remove power connection.
3 - Wait one minute.
4 - reconnect power to modem wait for all lights to come
on.
5 - boot up pc again.
If this worked the IP has been re-established
Next if your machine has much malware/spyware it is
possible your winsock.dll file has been corrupted.
Scan and remove spyware first
In that case visit Kellys Korner, look for her XP
utilities and fixes, you are looking for the winsock
repair tool.
