To do so, follow these steps: 1.            Click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Connections. 2.            Right-click your Internet connection, and then click Properties. 3.            Click the Advanced tab in the Properties dialog box. 4.            Click Settings, and the Advanced Settings dialog box opens. From there you can enable most common services just by clicking them, or add your own by clicking the Add button.     All these and more can be found on the Microsoft Website.
