    resettingall network settings on vista laptop?

    Hello,
    Internet doesn't work anymore on a friends laptop.
    Can someone tell me how I completly reset this?
    So it can reconfigure again?
    It uses configfree for controlling the connections, but I can't find it.
    Internet used to work, but recently it doesn't so i thught resetting it would help?

    Thanks!

    What aspect of "The Internet doesn't work"? HTTP (web browsing) mail, DNS? Can you ping IP addresses? If you type in the IP address of a web site (rather than the domain name), does that work?

    Need a bit more diagnostic info to pinpoint the problem!
