Problem: 
Unable to open LAN properties windows. When clicking properties button of tcp/ip, it just blinks once and nothing happens.


Solution: 
This problem is mostly due to winsock corruption. You need to reset winsock to fix this problem.
1. Open up the command line utility ( run as administrator ) :
start --> programs --> accessories --> right click on command prompt --> select run as administrator
2. Now type  
netsh winsock reset catalog --> press enter (resets winsock entries)
netsh int ip reset reset.log hit --> press enter (resets TCP/IP stack)
3. Reboot your PC
