You should never install Busybox in /system/bin, default behavior is to replace applets, so it will replace default system ones, it will probably break the system. Android uses default commands to do a lot of stuff.

BusyBox should be installed to /system/xbin for safe integration.

Did you fixed it, re-flashed ROM maybe?

You can reflash the system partition for restore original utils.

As I Said "Some Old Apps Required It In /bin"So I installed It In /bin.Ironically The Other Busybox Installer(Sterricson's)Didn't Had That.Yes I Used It To Install Applets To Both /bin and xbin.But Then I saw a new Busybox App and Tried It.That Messed Up My Internet Both 3g and Wifi.Also I Lost Root. I solved it By Reflashing System Partition.

@mirzaatifbaig Then you should close this.

Installing BusyBox in /system/bin, aka, replacing default system utils is asking for trouble, no matter what flavor. Switches, options and output from commands may be totally different from default ones, obviously this will cause erratic behavior.
