Are you running any firewall software? Is the Remote Procedure Call Service running (and enabled "Automtic")?
Do you really need the "Help and Support" service? I personally disabled mine on my PC. Like I really want help from Micro$oft....

Many thanks to egghead for the cool .sig
RPC is started and status is auto.
RPC (locator) wasn't started. I started it and made it automatic.
Same problem as before.
In spite of not being able to access Help and Support (and yes, I like to be able to do that on occasion), I have no trouble accessing any site on the net or using any program. Save for this current problem, my computer is working 100% in all respects, except for an occasional minor quirk. Yes, I am using a firewall, the one built in in XP but it was in use before the Help and Support problem occurred.
