| Windows XP Networking Bug HELP!!!
I have a cable modem that I have connected through a Linksys 4 port router. I have 2 machines that run just fine through it. However, i just added a 3rd machine today, setting it up for home networking so that I could transfer files between the two. Now, this machine worked fine until i ran the network setup wizard to configure it for file sharing. I had run the wizard on the other two computers so that I could print off of one printer.
Now, the new machine is unable to ping ANYTHING outside the network. I can access the internet, use AIM and such, but I cannot connect to things such as Kazaa and Morpheous. I have tried pinging things like www.yahoo.com and www.gamespot.com. Ever time I do, I get an error message that says "PING: Transmit failed, error code 65." Looking on Microsoft's website, it says this is a symptom of an incorrectly setup firewall. I was originally running Zonealarm, but it wasnt causing error messages like this to pop up. Since then I have tried deactivating it, and I still get the error.
My guess is that the whole mess is caused by something that the Home Networking Wizard did. I have tried, unsucessfully, to find a way to deactivate it, but I havnt had any luck. Suggestions please!?!?! Thanks!
