LSP-Fix - repairs a specific type of problem associated with certain Internet software
LSP-Fix helps you to correct Internet connection problems resulting from buggy or improperly-removed Layered Service Provider (LSP) software.
LSP-Fix is a free tool to repair a specific type of problem associated with certain Internet software. This type of software is known as a Layered Service Provider or LSP, a piece of software that can be inserted into the Windows TCP/IP handler like a link in a chain. However, due to bugs in the LSP software or deletion of the software, this chain can get broken, rendering the user unable to access the Internet.
Unfortunately, this type of software is sometimes quietly installed by unrelated software such as file-sharing programs, sneaking onto a system unannounced. In fact, in many cases, the user does not know of its existance until something goes wrong, and he/she can no longer access Web sites.
When you start LSP-Fix, it will read the list of LSP modules from the Windows registry and verify that each module is present. If a module is missing, it is placed on the "Remove" list for removal. When "Finish" is pressed, the undesired entries are removed, and the remaining entries in the registry are renumbered to make them consecutive. The total module counts are then updated. Finally, the program will display a summary of the changes that were made.
Common offenders include New.net* (NEWDOTNET) and WebHancer*, which are often bundled with file-sharing utilities, DVD player software, and other free downloads.
LSP-Fix repairs the Winsock LSP chain by removing the entries left behind when LSP software is removed by hand (or when errors in the software itself break the LSP chain), and removing any gaps in the chain.
Requirements:
· Windows NT/2000/XP users: In order for this program to be able to access the registry or make any repairs, you must be logged in as Administrator.
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· LSP chains entirely verified on program start, and status (errors / no errors) now displayed on the program main window.
· If Winsock2 registry keys are inaccessible, LSP-Fix now warns the user to log in as Administrator and retry, rather than reporting the key as missing.
· Fixed cosmetic window-sizing bug that can appear when running under Windows XP.
· Added harsher warning text for those users who insist on hosing their systems by fiddling with the advanced settings anyway.
· Released under the GNU General Public License.
