I want to disable the "NetBIOS over TCP/IP" device in the device manager to free port 445. But after doing that my Internet stops working. I'm connected to a WLan router using DHCP on WinXP, and it is stuck forever in the "acquire network address" step.

Why does it misbehave like that? I don't need NetBIOS!

I've always accepted the default NetBIOS name when running DCPromo, for fear that creating a NetBIOS name… >>> More
