VMware unable to open network mapping library

When starting a VM, I received this error: 
VMware unable to open network mapping library
This started when I moved back to VMware Workstation 6 after trying Server 2.0 Beta.

This thread got me to thinking, but didn't fix the problem.

I looked further into the .vmx file and found more entries that Server 2.0 beta had added. The removal of these 4 lines fixed the issue and the VM now starts fine in Workstation. 

ethernet0.features = "1"
ethernet0.networkName = "Bridged"
ethernet0.allowGuestConnectionControl = "FALSE"
ethernet0.wakeOnPcktRcv = "FALSE"
