Windows 98 machine on a small network. 2 NIC cards - one for the network, one for DSL router. Norton Firewall was preventing the user from seeing/browsing the network. Upon reconfiguration of the firewall, network connectivity was restored. Now the following message appears at startup:

The following error occurred while loading protocol #2. Error 59. A network error has occurred.

The user clicks ok, and the message goes away, but he is tired of seeing this message every time he turns his PC on. Any ideas of what the message means and how to get rid of it?

Thanks in advance for any/all replies!

I really have no clue, but you did say any/all....so.
Go Start>Run SYSEDIT
look at the Protocol.ini file, if not there
It''s located in Windows
