MORE: I tried uninstalling ZoneAlarm on the laptop and it still won't
access the Internet. I still see the 'Internet Gateway' icon and that
shared connection is listed in Network Connections and shows as connected.

I've rerun the Network Connection Wizard, but still no dice. Something in
Windows changed. I guess, when I installed ZoneAlarm but I don't know what.

Again, any help is appreciated.
