i didn't do it. a client of mine did it. set up ics, it shows up in services, but only on the machines that had it initially. unfortunately the pc's that have it and that don't seem to want to talk to each other.

i hate doing installs like this when clients have already started the job.

also, they are set up with Router so no need for ICS anymore. initially they used one modem to dial up and shared that connection. now there is no longer a need for an "Internet Gateway" but i can't seem to get rid of that as well.

uhh.

just disable the service permanently , that should take care of it

u know i had the same problem
but that was coz i had ipsec vpn client on my laptop now everytime i want to share hdd's with the other pc i need to uncheck that option from the wifi card's properties
mm weird , well lemme see how u can uninstall it , if at all

 

[kalster]

is it internet gateway devices discovery and control client,

check in advanced properties of networking services

 

[PlatinumGold]

ya. i tried the advanced. nothing.

right clicking on it also leaves the "delete" option greyed out.

 

[kalster]

delete?

i thought u just need to uncheck it to uninstall it?

ur looking under xp windows component wizard ->network services->details right?

 

[PlatinumGold]

no not there.

i meant under control panel - network connections
