I have a laptop running WindowsXP Pro with capability for both wireless and
wired network connections. Currently, I am using my wireless connection to
connect to the local domain at work. While at work, I would like to use a
separate service (such as ClearWire Internet) to access the Internet.

Is it possible to have my internet browser use one internet connection and
my other programs (such as those run from servers on my local domain) on the
other connection?

You might want to check with your local computing security first. Most
companies don't like the idea of a computer being connected to their intranet at
the same time it's connected to the internet on another interface.
