Since I don't know what you had and what you did to clean, make sure the
computer is really virus/malware-free:

If the computer is really clean and you are referring to the XP Service
Pack 2 Firewall (crystal ball sez maybe but if it's something else
you'll have to specify):

Start>Run cmd [enter]
netsh winsock reset catalog [enter]
Follow prompts and reboot.

If that doesn't work and/or you need more help, please see this link for
information on what you need to include in your next newsgroup post:

Well, there's a slim chance the OP will come back, but since you're
responding to a post that was made on May 9th it is unlikely.
