TITLE   :MSN Icon Does Not Function After MSN 1.2 Upgrade
PRODUCT :The Microsoft Network
PROD/VER:1.20
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:msnconnect

======================================================================
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - The Microsoft Network version 1.2
---------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

After you upgrade to version 1.2 of MSN, The Microsoft Network, the MSN
icon on the desktop may not function.

CAUSE
=====

This behavior can occur if the Wsock32.dll file is damaged or missing.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this issue, rename the Wsock32.dll file (if it exists) in the
Windows\System folder, and then extract a new copy of the Wsock32.dll
file from your original Windows 95 disks or CD-ROM to the Windows\System
folder. The Wsock32.dll file is located in the Win95_11.cab cabinet file.

NOTE: If you are using a NEC or Compaq computer with a preinstalled
version of Windows 95, the Wsock32.dll file is located in the Win95_19.cab
cabinet file.

For information about using the Extract tool, type "extract" (without
quotation marks) at a command prompt, or see the following article in
