View Available Wireless Networks Blank

Hello my name is Tommy, I am using XP Home with a USB wireless adapter and
when I try to View Available wireless networks everything is grayed out and
no networks show, I have tried another adapter and get the same thing, I have
used another notebook with the current usb adapters and everything works
fine. Windows is still SP1 on this machine. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Could this be a Virus?
Thanks for any help

I also forgot to mention the type of usb adapter I was using, it is a Linksys
WUSB54G

This was a working network, everything worked, the adapter the computer, the
network, and now it doesn't. The adapter is still good, so my question is
still why can't I view available networks, I know that it is not bad drivers
for the adapter as I have installed a different adapter and still can't see
any available networks.

I have a similar problem. Everything was working, but for some reason
stopped.
I'm using a Belkin wireless-G card (FD57001) and a Belkin router.
No signs of errors anywhere, except for the fact that I can't see the
network.
