XP Firewall 1

[jackg304]

I lost the firewall protection from Win. XP. I try to restart it and it says it cannot start windows firewall / internet connection sharing ( ICS ) service .
Can anyone tell me how to handle this problem ?
Thanks, Jackg.

Hmm, sounds like a DNS problem to me.

Better check for viruses and worms. I've worked on xp machines that lost the firewall from viruses in the past. Also, check for cookies using spybot or ad-aware. Good luck.
