Although you must all be still enjoying the Latest built Windows 7 RC but those who are still using XP might find a error Windows Generic Host Process .This error breaks any Internet connection and you cant reconnnect disconnect or logoff.You can only get the Connection working again by restarting and reconnnecting.
I even searched for this problem and found a hotfix on Microsoft website.
