"Good idea for a program, but I think its better to do it manually."
Pros: Its free.
Cons: It didn't work for me.
I got computers with broken winsock in working order by fixing it manually...that is replacing the three main winsock DLL files from with good copies from a working computer (winrnr.dll, mswsock.dll, rsvpsp.dll) and deleting the broken WinSock registry keys and replacing them with good copies from a working computer (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2).
This program only goes as far as replacing the bad dll's. A broken winsock is a 2 part game...the bad files and the bad registry keys as mentioned above. This program doesn't touch them and has limited success.

Version: LSPFix 1
Pros: I accidentally ran two antivirus programs and my applications no longer recognized my internet connection. I had the cable techs come out and they couldn't figure it out. I uninstalled and reinstalled XP. I could kick myself. One click... fixed. I keep it handy just in case.

"Worked instantly and solved my "Page Cannot Be Displayed" nightmare!"
Pros: It FIXED my connection problem.
I was getting the Page Cannot be Displayed error after about 15 minutes after I rebooted and would then have to restart my computer until the next time it happened.
It did it immediately without one hassle.
I don't know exactly how it did it and don't really care. It works. Like Magic.
Cons: Nothing.
