Thanks for the tip,
I had a problem where my XP machine stopped connecting to the network, but could still ping
and be pinged from other computers.
When I ran repair on the local area connection Status box -> Support tab -> Repair - I got errors.
When I ran "nbtstat -a" from command promt it always failed with an netbt error.
Tried everything to get it to work.
Setting HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\TransportBindName to value "/Devce" finally fixed it.
Also presume it was spyware caused it.
