In a PC network environment we have to access another computer sometimes, which usually requires a password to access its resources like files and printers, we have to give the username and password once and then it remains in the Windows Cache until it is restarted or logged off. And if we check the remember password option, then it remains in even after Windows restart. This can be a security issue. Here is the method to delete all cached Windows Network passwords.
Well I did not get this problem but my friend who manages a full network ran into this problem and he told me about it. He also had complaints from his clients about this problem causing network to go down and he suggested first method for this fix to all which works perfectly. If are browsing online and suddenly all your Network activity goes to hault and but you can still see the Internet connected icon in the tray but you cannot surf, browse or do anything and you cant reconnect. Thats is the common symptom for Generic Host problem. The error message will be something like "Generic Host Process for Win32 Services has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." or "Generic Host Process for Win32 Services Error." If you try to disconnect Internet connection, the Internet icon won't disappear or disabled. You may receive an error message something like "Your PC has recovered from a serious problem." after restart etc. Lets discuss some solution for this to get rid of Generic Host win 32 error.
Some times it is necessary to flush DNS to refresh internet services you are using in case of any service interuption. Flush dns to get a new name resolution. Also flush dns cache when you can't access a newly registered domain name. You can simply flush your dns cache anytime to get new entry. We discuss here that how can we flush dns using MAC, PC or Linux and how to get a new dynamic IP address from IP server in Windows.

This is suppposed to change your dynamic IP Address.
Open notepad and type
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /refresh
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /all>newip.txt
end
then save as (select all file types) --- ip.bat
this is now a batch file rather than a txt file. Simply hit run on the file and watch the progress.
If you want to print out the results then add this line into the same file befoe "END"
ipconfig /all>filename. txt
A report will be saved in the same directory as your batch file, detailing your new ip and a bit more...
For the best experience using the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard, you will want to connect your two computers together. You can connect your computers either by using a null modem serial cable or by using Home networking.
Connecting With A Serial Cable
The easiest way to connect your computers is to use the null modem serial cable. To use the null modem serial cable:
Both computers must have an available serial port (also called a COM port).
You must have a null modem serial cable (also called a LapLink serial cable or a serial file transfer cable).
The serial cable must be long enough to connect the computers together.
Connecting With Home Networking
The best way to connect your computers together is to use Home networking. Although the setup is more complex, your files and settings will transfer faster. If you are planning to keep both your old computer and your new computer, you might want to consider creating a Home network.
To use Home networking:
Both computers must have a network interface card or a USB network interface installed. The jack looks like a slightly larger telephone jack.
You must have network cable, and in most cases a hub.
The network cable must be long enough to connect the computers together.
Note: A wireless network will not need network cable or a hub.
Run the Network Setup Wizard to set up your Home network.
