i found the solution. SP2 has an enhanced TCP/IP stack, and that WINSOCK fix is not right for SP2. The proper fix for XP-SP2 is as follows:
TCP/IP stack repair options for use with Windows XP with SP2.
For these commands, Start, Run, CMD to open a command prompt.
Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults: netsh winsock reset catalog
Reset TCP/IP stack to installation defaults. netsh int ip reset reset.log

Hmm. Have u checked the Network settings (LAN or WLAN) to see if it is still activated or if it has an error in connecting? it might have been deactivated after de-installing your previous AntiV software.

you have to check whether you are using TCP/IP or DHCP. if you are using the former, then you have to set a relevant IP address depending on where you want to browse. like 192.168.0.22. then ask for the rest; gateway. DNS. then you can check if you system is browsing

@k.fada
you mean dhcp or static ip. they refer to how ip address is configured
tcp/ip goes with udp, and they refer to protocol and transport
