I haven't found any way to switch settings easily from within XP itself but
I've found two programs that will do what you want to do.  Netswitcher
http://www.netswitcher.com/ and MultiNetwork Manager
http://www.globesoft.com/ .  Both work really well.   I ended up buying
Netswitcher to use with my laptop just because it was cheaper.
