parlins,
Have you fixed the problem yet? If not, I just experienced the
same problem. Here is how I fixed it. I went to start and clicked on
log off. I logged off and logged back on. I then pressed
ctrl-alt-delete to bring the task manager up. Under the processes tab
I clicked on explorer.exe and pressed end process to end the
explorer.exe task from running. Then under the applications tab I
clicked new task, typed in explorer in the box and clicked ok. That
should allow you to view the status dialog box of your local area
connection again. Let me know if it works. Thanks.
