Could be anything. If there is a third-party firewall installed, remove it
and use the built-in WinXP firewall instead. Remove the WLAN connection
from that desktop computer and create it again. Compare all relevant
settings (eg. TCP/IP settings, WLAN channel etc.) with the other PCs.
Scan the system for Malware in addition. If this doesn't help, repost to
