Assuming you have run all the recommended Spyware programs and ensured it is clean, our hardware guy recommends this product http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4180.html LSP-Fix repairs the Winsock LSP chain by removing the entries left behind when LSP software is removed by hand (or when errors in the software itself break the LSP chain), and removing any gaps in the chain.
Worth a try, beware of issues with this when run on a machine with an out-of-date version of Adaware.

Possibly around the time I loaded latest MSN Messenger (v7.5) or a windows update. Laptop Sony Vaio FR720 (Athlon processor), Windows XP Pro. Problem - after coming out of suspend the Internet connection dies or goes very slowly (I mean a broadband connection going slower than dial-up - eg 10/20/30 delay before loading a website or timing out altogether). Other connections, such as Skype or email make work normally or may be affected as well - ie it is mainly TCP/IP I think. Have up-to-date virus protection and Zone-Alarm. Also - related? Windows security system has stopped warning me about antivirus updates being available. Also - related? Zone alarm stopped running automatically with the restart of the PC, I instead added it to the Startup folder, means it starts a bit later than it used to. TCP/IP problems usually get worse over time, a full reboot always fixes it.
