I played a bit with his laptop (damn it's a bi**h to do anything with winders) |
25 |
and found that "Internet Connection Sharing" was enabled. I disabled same and |
26 |
it seems to have done the trick. My God! I fealt like a noobie trying to |
27 |
fumble my way around that thing. Is there no way of restarting the network on |
28 |
XP? |
