Default "Windows cannot configure this wirelees connection"

I have this laptop here that will not go on the net. Gives me the message in the title. I know what this means, but I can't find the program that is controlling it so that I can remove it. How do I go about doing this? I can go into services and start the Windows Zero Configuration service, and it works, although I can tell that it's buggy. Basically, how do I find out what program is running the wireless and turn it off? Or at least get windows to have full control....

Give me a SS of Windows Task manager under the processes tab.
You might also have some spyware/malware on your computer

Make sure you sandpaper the hole, and then put some U rubber over it to avoid sharp edges. Put some grease around the newly drilled hole, and then screw your computer, screw it hard. Maybe install some UV lights and turn em up to indicate that your computer is also excited.

*Goes to google*


To overcome it, try this:
- Rt-click the WLAN icon and click View available wireless networks
- Click on Change advanced settings
- Click on Wireless networks tab
- Click to tick the box for "Use Windows to configure my wireless
network settings"
- OK everything
- Reboot Windows

Worth a shot...
