Default Help--Network setting screw uo

I have a Compaq tower system running 98 (SE?) with a dial up modem. It was
running fine until...

I recently acquired a HP Pavillion dv6000 and ordered a wireless router so
that I can network the two computers. The router has not yet arrived.

I thought that I would do some preliminary set up and started with the
Compaq system.

I started to set up the network and I think changed a setting. In any
event, I now get an error message when I try to use Netscape Mail and I get
an error message when I try to download updates for AVG virus checker. Both
of those messages close me out of the respective programs.

How can I get things back to where I was before?

Error message for Netscape Mail is "This program has performed an illegal
operation and will be shut down. If the problem persists, contact the
program vendor.

Message for AVG 7.5 is labelled AVGINET and has the same message.

Message for Firefox2.xx is Firefox and has the same message.

When you get an "illegal operation" error message, click the "Details" button, and
post back with the exact details word for word, up to but not including the memory
registers.

When I pull up the details with words is "(Program name) caused an invalid
page fault unknown at 0000:008b3944. All the rest is registers, bytes and
stack dump, all in hexadecimal.
