Recent Avast update 121205-1 may leave you without internet connection by deleting tcpip.sys file. It happens mostly if the file TCPIP.SYS has been patched with TPC/IP patcher like Lvllord's (it increases the limit of concurrent half-open connections). If this is the case - the easiest way to resolve the problem is to restore tcpip.sys file from the scratch. You can download the file from here . The archive contains two folders tcpip2180 is for Windows XP SP2 and tcpip5625 is for Windows XP SP3. All you need to do is to unzip tcpip.sys to both C:\Windows\System32\drivers and C:\Windows\System32\dllcache folders. You'll also need to make the following changes to the registry: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TcpIP  (DWORD) Start=1 Tag=3 Type=1 Reboot the computer after that and you should be all set. *Advise: Deleting registry entries incorrectly may cause serious problems to your operating system.

Update from 21/12/2012: A BIG thanks goes to Samsung for their updated Kies v.2.5.1.12123_2. It is now possible to transfer backup data from a non-Samsung device directly from the Kies! You can transfer the data from Nokia, Apple, LG and BlackBerry phones (*.nbu, *.idx and *.bbb files supported). *** It's obvious that the easiest way to transfer contacts from one phone to another is use Bluetooth. (Turn Bluetooth "on" on each device; open contacts; then in options mark all; then in options "send to" via Bluetooth). But in some cases e.g. Nokia C2-01 to Samsung GT-C3530 data transfer it's not possible to send all contacts at once. In this case you'll need Microsoft Outlook, Nokia PC Suite and  SAMSUNG Kies PC Sync . Steps are the following: Start Nokia PC Suite Synchronise your contacts to MS Outlook Connect Samsung phone Start Kies Synchronise contacts from MS Outlook to Kies Sync Kies conatcts with your Samsung phone
