Yesterday I was talking someone through setting up Internet Connection Sharing. So I could tell them exactly what menus to expect, I thought I'd do it on my own PC at the same time, then click 'Cancel' on the last screen. Pah! About 5 screens through the Network Setup Wizard, the 'Cancel' button vanished, and I had to go through with it. Not to worry, I thought, I'll just undo it afterwards.

I have tried to do so, but every now and then when browsing, a dialogue box pops up which says:

Code:

Network Connections
Cannot load dialog.
Error 623: The system could not find the phone book entry for this connection.
OK

As long as I keep clicking OK, everything else seems to work fine. (Why is there no "No, it's not OK" button?

)

I've searched for this error on the Microsoft support site, but all I can find suggests that my VPN connection isn't set up properly. I don't use VPNs. (I have tried to set one up then delete it, but this hasn't helped).

Any ideas? I'm on XP Professional SP2, by the way.
