I have encountered the same error:

Could not start the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)
service on local computer.

Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.

The file ipnathlp.dll is present.

Hi Valcin,

See if the file ipnathlp.dll is present in the following folder:

%SystemRoot%\System32\

If missing, extract a new copy from source.

I am running XP Pro service pack 2. When I try to start the firewall in
the
control panel it will not start. When I try to start the service manually
i
get the following error:

Could not start the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)
service on local computer.

Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.

I cannot tell what file it can't find or how to replace it. Any help
would
be greatly appreciated.
