It sounds like you tried to install VPN or Dial up Networking and stopped in the middle of the install. Anyway a cause and resolution is at this address http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q166832 Make sure there are no spaces inthe Address and go to it. This page has the cause and the resolution.

It is the Netbios virtual device driver. It's in the NET9.CAB on the W98 CD-ROM and in c:\windows\system subdirectory on your computer.

Go into the control panel then into
networking. Delete all the networking components installed. Reboot then reinstall the networking components

Reinstall your network protocols to fix this problem
