How long has it been since this worked corrrrectly? If this was just recent, maybe try using system restore and go back to when it worked.
I don't understand why it doesn't come on, unless you have one of those virus programs that doesn't allow the computer online with expired virus protection.
Have you scanned for Malware? Download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware update and do a quick scan. See if it finds anything.
I tried all of your suggestions, but still no luck. I finally gave up and performed a "restore to factory settings." This seems to have fixed the problem. I'll be busy the rest of this evening now getting everything set back up. Thanks for your help.
I fixed it by performing a system restore. Unfortunately, the only restore point was the original setting, so I had to back everything up, restore to the initial settings, and then reinstall all of my software. I suspect that the problem was from an automatic Windows update.
Following your directions, I could get a little farther in the installation. The files were successfully extracted and a setup file was created (I couldn't get this far before). However, I am now getting the error: "This program could not be removed!" Then the install wizard ends with: "The wizard was interrupted before wireless enable/disable could be completely installed. The system has not been modified. To install this program at a later time, run the installation again."

Did I have you try WinSock XP Fix?

Gambler1, did you get a fix for this? I have the same problem when trying to reinstall the wireless enable/disable program.

hello rockstarrick,
Following your directions, I could get a little farther in the installation. The files were successfully extracted and a setup file was created (I couldn't get this far before). However, I am now getting the error: "This program could not be removed!" Then the install wizard ends with: "The wizard was interrupted before wireless enable/disable could be completely installed.

charisisrael,
Did you recently install/reinstall the operating system?
Make and model of your computer and opertaing system is helpful.
Can you run Finding System Information REMOVE YOUR PRODUCT ID and REGISTERED OWNER, if using XP, run an ipconfig /all log and post it back here.
What virus program and firewall are you using?
