Reference the post below yours titled "Winsock and XP" it
gives the Microsoft Knowledge base number for the fix
(Winsock corruption). It entails deleting and importing
regisrty keys so you need to have another XP PC to be able
to get the good registry keys from to import into the PC
with the problems. Hope this helps.

Can you ping the router ? something else you can try is
at command promt type "tracert internetsite" (e.g tracert
www.honda.com) this will show how far the packets reach
and will give you a piont which to start resolving your
problem.

Good luck

Sorry Alvin but TCP/IP cannot be uninstalled because it is the core
component of Windows XP. Details here.
