Error when accessing Network Properties



I am using Windows XP SP2 on a Dell Dimension 4600. I have a home network
that works well. However, when I attempt to access my Network Connections
Properties, I receive an error message...specifically a small window titled
"Network Connections" containing the message "An unexpected error occurred."
The only choice is OK.

I get this error when I select Start, Control Panel, Network Connections,
then right click on my Local Area Connection and select Properties.

How can I access my Network Connection Properties? I need to do so to
change an annoying "service" by Cox which precludes my ability to search
from the address bar.

TIA

Bill
