My name's simon, im new in yours 'group'. I MUST ADMIT - I HAVE A PROBLEM... I cant
handle with it, i cant sleep at night, i cant find any way out of it....
As i said i am new here, i haven't read all post yet, but i'm on the best way to
do it, just few hours/days more, one hundred win-restarts... one thousand changes
in my ethernet adapters configration....
Sorry for this 'a bit' offtopic post but i just glad to see that im not alone ;)
PS: I'll post my solution here, as soon as i solve my problem (now - downloadnig
SP2, although i allready have it installed...)
