He doesn't have a restore cd (preinstall on a laptop, and we're in the Caribbean at school) - is there any place I can download the current versions of these? I can always replace them using an Ubuntu livecd.

Responses greatly appreciated, he's got a paper due tomorrow.

Hi Aph33x,

Your talking about that fake Vista-tcpip-sys-connection-limit-patch?

Well that patch is nothing but lies from people with no idea about networking

You can use System Restore to restore windows back before he applyed this patch

This tutorial will help System Restore - How to

WHAT????....Fake? They LIED???

LOL...yes they did, and dmex is 100% correct!!
You do not need these "patches" for your torrent d'loads, this is a complete flasehood invented by people who do not fully understand what this Half Open Connection limit really does. It does not affect your d'laod speeds so hopefully you can use System Restore from Safe Mode to get your install working again. Or if you can use the Rcovery Console (you need to know DOS commands), you may have been lucky to get a patch that actually backs up the original tcpip.sys file to a tcpip.bak, and restore the original file in the patched ones place.

Hope you learned something here...and don't fall for those idiots who say that the tcp/ip limit slows your d'load speeds as they know not what they say (or do obviously)(or make patches either for that matter...)
