Sure. Happens more often than you'd think. When Windows updates your
network drivers it sometimes recognizes the new driver as a new device
rather than as a replacement for the old one. The consequence is that
the network you marked as trusted/local/private becomes untrusted and it
is far from obvious to recover from that state.

The quick fix, as you found yourself, is to disable the firewall
completely. And of course Windows wouldn't be Windows if it didn't start
nagging you that your computer is now `unsafe` without any possibility
to disable that constant spam other than to destroy your network
connectivity again. Really the best tip I can give you is just wipe the
bloody thing and install Ubuntu on it.

Question: why do you figure the firewall would be important if the
computer sits on a shielded private network where its single network
interface used to be completely opened before?
