"Windows cannot display the properties of this
connection> The Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)
information might be corrupted. To correct this, use
System Restore to restore Windows to an earlier time
(called a restore point). System Restore is located in
the System Tools in Accessories.

Unfortunately I was so frustrated with the SPYWARE
intrusion, that I performed a completely new load of XP
and don't really have a valid restore point. Is there
any way for me to extract the WMI file from the Install
CD?
