if you only have one computer at home and you have a wireless router, its possible that someone got the same ip from your computer, but thats the worst scenario. its just possbile that your ip address was never released by your computer, you can just turn off and turn on your dsl or cable router.

i'm also getting same error---

if you are getting this error:

Windows - System Error
There is an IP address conflict with another system on the network

all this means is that another computer in your router or switch has the same ip address. that means another computer access your home dsl or cable internet connections. if you have mutliple computers at home, that that just means one of your family's member computer go the same ip address as you.

dont worry. if you can't surf the internet , just restart your computer and it will go away. your router will give you another ip address
