What exactly do you mean when you say "It won't go into" or "it wont search?" Do you get an error? A 404? etc.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You might have issues with your connection, in general. Can you connect with any other online software? (AIM, A game, etc.)

Also, could you tell us your OS, connection type, and your ethernet/modem information, etc.?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

As said above, try disabling the firewall (The XP one sucks) and perhaps try to "reinstall" TCP/IP. You can simply reinstall your ethernet card as a possible quickfix. Do any other PCs on the network (I hope there are others...for SCIENCE!) have the same issue?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Well you can't reinstall the protocol like you could in 2k/before..so you can start by reinstalling your ethernet card and restarting your PC. Go to your device manager and reinstall the drivers there. Just in case, you may want to delete your Winsock registry keys and let Windows remake them.

Start->Run->regedit
Search for "winsock" and delete the folders named "Winsock" and "Winsock2" HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\W insock
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\W insock2

So after uninstalling the ethernet card and deleting the winsock folders, restart. It should prompt you or something at startup to install it. If it does it on its own, great. Give it a shot then.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
