> Hi,
> I am part of a Seniors computing club.  We have 6 Celeron 733 with 128 meg
RAM conected in a network.  I installed the network and it all works well.
We then set up ICS.  We set up the main computer and prepared a disc which
we then installed on all the others (you run a file called icslet).  Every
machine works fine EXCEPT ONE!  When we try to activate either Outlook
Express 6 or IE we get the message  "Failed to load the Internet Connection
Wizard helper component."  We have tried to fing this component without
success even reinstalling Win 98se.  We are truly stuck and we need this
machine online. Has anyone some advice for us?

Did the box network OK prior to ICS?

I would be suspecting a hard ware problem. If the PC's are close by try the
suspect one on a different position ... and try a working one on the suspect
position. That should indicate if the the PC hardware and the cabling are OK
(or not!). Prior to that try the 'suspect' one in a different position on
the hub. As you're doing the fault finding keep notes as it's easy to
'forget' where one is! :-)
