If you have suddenly lost your Internet connection after removing spy-ware (such as NewDotNet, and Commonname) the following steps will help restore your connection. This works for Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP.
1.) Download WinsockFix.zip. (by: Option^Explicit)
2.) UnZip WinsockFix.zip (Pay close attention to where the file is extracted to.)
3.) Run WinsockFix.exe.
4.) Click the Fix button.
This program will clean up your TCP/IP connection and rebuild the database. After the program is complete, reboot and your problems should be resolved.

Revision History:
04.11.2003 - Original Article. - Travis
05.22.2003 - Updated link, per Option^Explicit.
Because the fix has become popular enough, it has been redone as one .exe programmed using VB. The download is smaller (684k) as a Zip and can be transferred to a broken computer via a single floppy diskette. Old link to be deleted soon. - Kevin
06.11.2004 - The download link is not working. We are temporarily mirroring the file. - Kevin
