The additional details that would have helped are things like what
changed between the time things worked and the time they didn't? What
kind of antivirus program do you have? What troubleshooting have you
already done?
Do you have the *beta* MS AntiSpyware program installed? "Beta" means
software that isn't finished yet and MSAS has a known issue with the
Windows Firewall.
MS antispyware tool disables Windows Firewall (or to reset firewall):
Start>Run cmd [enter]
netsh winsock reset catalog [enter]
Follow prompts and reboot.
FIREWALL DEAD, or other network issues:
