So I called, and was eventually sent a link to a "hotfix":
Hotfix file: ms-hotfix-196897_ENU_i386_zip.exe
Contains: WindowsXP-KB884020-x86-enu.exe (Run to install)
Also has: WindowsXP-KB884020-x86-Symbols-enu.exe (for debugging).
Installation set-up a restore point, and required restarting my PC to
finish.
And I'm pleased to say that this fixes the problem. I now have
restored access to loopback localhost addresses, 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.5,
etc.
Regards,
