Hey guys..

Avast! was blocking LSAAS Explotis, and other such attacks from the internet from the moment I went online. So I decided to put up a firewall, and went to Microsoft Help.
According to the info there, I went to the advanced tab in the properties of my Dial Up in 'Network Connections." But it says "Windows cannot display the properties of this connection. The Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) information might be corrupted. To correct this, use System Restore to restore Windows to an earlier time(called a restore point). System restore is located in the System Tools Folder in Accessories."
I wud like to know if there is any way to fix this corruption. Also, My Microsoft Help isn't opening. Is there a way to fix that?

Thanks.

Rule #1 Good computers don't go down.
Rule #2 There is no such thing as a good computer.
