I used to run BOINC all the time with no problems, but now I keep getting messages that it can't access the internet. My internet connection is fine; I'm writing this message on the PC where I've been running BOINC on WinXP. The error I get is below. There are no network connections to choose from to set a default, and I can't add any in BOINC.

"BOINC couldn't do internet communications, and no default connection is selected. Please connect to the internet or select a default connection using Advanced/Options/Connections."
