what operating system? usually a reboot will free up any files in use. If that doesnt work then you have a program accessing the applictation. Go to start, run, type msconfig, click the startup tab and uncheck all the boxes. reboot. is it still locked? If so you probably have a virus or spyware on your system.
If its not locked, then go back and recheck the boxes one at a time until you find the problem application.
EDIT:
And no, it's not your internet connection that is locking up IPConfig. In order to use certain ipconfig features a net connection is mandatory...IPCONFIG /renew for example.

Log off the internet before launching ipconfig.
