If after you restarted you're still receiving the error message... Start | Run | Type services.msc, and click OK | Check and make sure the "Startup type" for the following three services is set to "Manual"...
Remote Access Connection Manager
Remote Access Auto Connection Manager
Telephony
Remote Access Connection Manager
Remote Access Auto Connection Manager
Telephony

Try this automated Edit (disregard the name of the edit)...
Dial-Up Modem or PPPoE is Unavailable (Line 87)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
Save the edit, double click it to merge it into the Registry, and answer YES to the import prompt. You can view the *.reg file by opening it in Notepad (right click the file and select "Edit").

Two more things for you to check in Services... make sure Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) is set to "Automatic" and started, and Network Connections is set to "Manual" and started.

Give this a try (even though WMI is stopped, type the first command anyway)... open the Command Prompt (Start | Run | Type cmd, and click OK), and type:
net stop winmgmt
... then delete the files in the %sytemroot%\System32\wbem\repository directory. After you delete the files, go back to the Command Prompt and type...
net start winmgmt
net stop winmgmt
... then delete the files in the %sytemroot%\System32\wbem\repository directory. After you delete the files, go back to the Command Prompt and type...
net start winmgmt

Before deleting the files in the repository directory, give this a try... open the Command Prompt, and type the following commands (hitting ENTER after each):
winmgmt /clearadap
winmgmt /kill
winmgmt /unregserver
winmgmt /regserver
winmgmt /resyncperf
This may or may not repair the repository but will re-install WMI into the Registry. Make sure to reboot after running the above commands. If that fails, then delete all the files contaned within the repository folder, and reboot (Windows will rebuild the directory upon reboot).

YOu can try this, it has worked for me in the past, found at a different forum:
First, back up your registry:
1. Click Start
2. Click Run
3. Type "regedit" (without the quotes) and click OK.
4. In the Registry Editor, click File > Export.
5. Make sure that "All Keys" are selected for export, give the file a name, and click Save. Make sure you note where the file is being saved to. Then, try this:
1. Click Start
2. Click Run
3. Type "cmd" (without the quotes) in the box and click Ok.
4. At the prompt, type (pressing Enter after each line):
REG DELETE HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess /v DependOnService
REG ADD HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess /v DependOnService /t REG_MULTI_SZ /d "Netman"
5. Reboot. Now, attempt to turn off your firewall.
If this doesn't work, locate the registry backup we made earlier, double-click on it, and merge it back into your current registry. This will return your system to its original state.
