RE: WEIRD Dell Windows XP problem...

Booth,

Goto 

http://ipcop.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=viewdo
wnload&cid=3&min=10&orderby=titleA&show=10

And select the IP Cop v1.4.2 ISO.  Burn it to a CD and you have a bootable
CD.  If you proceed past the "Do You Really Want to Do This" Prompt, it is
guaranteed to fix your Windows problems as it will install a Linux firewall!

Bob
