Restore Internet Connection by Repairing Winsock and TCP


Ever uninstalled a program that spitefully took your Internet connection with it? Ever run an antispyware program and end up with sporadic Web access? There are times that when you remove network related software, Adware or after registry clean-up, your network connection no longer works.

Here's a LAST option if you've tried all ways to fix the internet connectivity issue. It has worked for many people and of course, it doesn't necessarily means that it will 100% fix the problem. But it's worth a try...

WinSock XP Fix will offer a last option if your Internet connectivity has been corrupted due to removed or invalid registry entries. It can often cure the problem of lost connections after the removal of Adware components or improper uninstall of firewall applications or other tools that modify the XP network and Winsock settings.


It can create a registry backup of your current settings, so it is fairly safe to use. Winsock XP Fix has been tested on a test machine that was having a Winsock problem due to some Adware removal, and after running the utility and rebooting, the connectivity was restored.

Below are the steps of what Winsock XP Fix does in case you're wondering what will happen when you run the tool.

1.) Detect your current Operating System
2.) Release the IP address, taking you "Offline"
3.) Reset the TCP stack using Netsh.exe (Windows XP only)
4.) Delete the current Registry TCP and Winsock Values
5.) Import new "Working" Registry Values
6.) Backup any Current "Hosts" file
7.) Replace the "Hosts" file with a default one
8.) Reboot the Computer

A great tool to carry around with you. Unfortunately Winsock XP Fix is not actively supported or developed. Even the official website is no longer available. This tool was last updated on Nov 07, 2003 but it still works on today's problem. Remember, ALWAYS use the "ReG-Backup" before **** the "Fix" button so you can restore back when it doesn't work.
