I had this exact same problem for weeks and found that a lot of other people
do to, who suggested removing win updates, this does not work. The problem
is spyware has changed settings in your registry to stop you from connecting
to the network.
The workaround is to run Adaware and Spybot to clean up your system, this
may still not fix the problem so then you need to run a program called
WinsockXPFix.exe to return your registry to it's orignal settings. I found
this URL useful:
www.iup.edu/house/resnet/winfix.shtm. Follow the
instructions and everything should be ok.
Plus my system now seems to be running a lot quicker than before.
