To be fair, thats only one way to do it. You can also edit the registry
other ways, like using a .reg file, or entering commands into the run
box such as:
REG add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters..

Though, its worth mentioning I learnt this type of stuff when having to
fix windows machines infected with various types of virus..
