Since Automatic updates occurred on my Windows XP home computer this week
(not sure what exact updates they were) I can no longer connect to my
wireless modem. I know the problem does not lie with my ISP as I can connect
through my laptop just fine. Any ideas? It is saying the network is not
assigning a network address to the computer. |

I cannot cut and paste because I have no email connectivity on the
problematic computer since it will not connect to the wireless modem. I am
currently working from my laptop. I did run the report though and I think
the one that caused the problem is:

I don't believe their is a 3rd party firewall but I am no techie.

We need to see the *updates* that were installed not what you posted.
Suggest you use a USB thumb drive to transfer the log entries to the
system with connectivity.
What is the installed antivirus\security suite on the affected system ?

The connectivity issue is directly related to the McAfee actively
monitoring the system when SP3 was installed.
Right after the rebooting of the system after SP3 was installed, is this:

Suggest you uninstall XP SP3 from within Add/Remove Programs in the
Control Panel. Restart the system and see if connectivity is restored.
If not, you can try resetting the Winsock stack . If no joy, then you
may need to do a Repair Installation of XP to get connectivity back.
To restore the Winsock, open a Command Prompt from
Start > Run > type in cmd
Click OK or press Enter.
At the prompt, type in the following *exactly* as written, and press
Enter after *each* command.
netsh winsock reset
exit
Restart the system and see if connectivity has been restored.
If it's not, see this for Repair instructions:
