causes 2wire wireless network card to work after installing then in my cases causes it to start thowing out SYNC_SENT's when trying to use IE or Firefox browsers. When this happens normal http traffic is halted. This is when using XP. May happen on other OS's. You can see this when you first connect up by going to a CMD (Dos box) and typing "netstat -p TCP 5"

Its Needed To Run Wireless Configuration

I don't have wireless and it still showed up

its part of sbc\at&t installation to get dsl service to run. Keeping it from running under windows 98 can cause connection problems. some firewalls can promt you as to what to do when it is running. Suggestion: allow.

Component used in combination with wireless receivers like Speedtouch 120G. Not dangerous. Probably not necessary when you have enabled zero wireless configuration service in Windows

Installed Speedtouch ST120G wireless USB adapter. Everything fine. Afterwards installed Agnitum Security Suite Pro RC. And now I got an error from PRISMSVR at startup. But as stated by others everything seems to works fine.

On my Dell Latitude 800, on boot up, I get an application error from PRISMSVR.EXE and I close the application. I am using a 2wire link card which seems to work just fine.
