This morning I tried to access our department's webserver (maintained by yours truly, located at yours truly's cubicle), but to no avail. I then tought, maybe the webserver had been running for quite some time, and need a restart. So restart it goes, and still cannot access the webserver. Tried to PING the webserver, only got this msg back : "Request time out."

I was like, oh shit, what the heck I have done wrong? Tried to stop & restart the IIS (the server running Windows XP Pro), still no signs of revival.

Then something pop-up from nowhere, and I went to check the Internet Connection Firewall (ICF) for the LAN connection, and to my horror, it's TURNED ON!! No wonder i cannot even PING the webserver. Oh ya, last night while troubleshooting with customer I might have accidently turned on the ICF while guiding the customer how to turn ICF on.

Now the webserver is cruising smoothly, thanks to my stupidity.... kekeke :P

Biasak lar in our line of work. Unless it's a PDA, where you just do hard reset everytime you encounter a non-solving solution...
