More info?)
UPDATE: I sent an email assist request to microsoft and got the solution
with 24 hours. The cause of mine was: third party software, such as IPMon32
from Verizon, may be causing this issue.
Solution:a. Click Start, go to Run, and type "msconfig" in the open box to
start the System Configuration Utility.
b. Click the Startup tab, uncheck the item related to IPMon32 and click OK.
Reboot and check the Control Panel.
