Hi Dave,
Not wanting to hijack your post, but I'm experiencing a similiar
problem, and was wondering whether it stems from the same cause. I ran
the Yahoo anti-spy tool, and now _most_ of my applications (excluding
nslookup) cannot do DNS lookups (even in safe mode). When I attempt to
browse I'm not even seeing a DNS request with Ethereal.
So, at this point I'm wondering if this is a "svchost.exe -k
NetworkService" issue, (assuming that nslookup uses its own DNS client
resolver). I've used sysinternals "Process Explorer" in an attempt to
see what's going on. The entry for File //device/UDP is not present,
however, I am still seeing SNMP in the firewall logs, so apparently I
still have some UDP capability.
Oh, and all my other machines on the network can browse. I'm
flumoxed...any ideas? Thanks for your help.
Craig
