First, please include previous message in your replies.

Second, you /do/ have a firewall: WinXP has one built-in and IIRC it will be
enabled by default by Dell.

I urge you to put the OE problem aside for the time being and spend some
time at these two very important pages. You have some work to do:

Before You Connect a New Computer to the Internet

Protect Your PC
http://www.microsoft.com/security/protect/default.asp

[copy/paste the above URLs into an IE window's Addressbar and glick GO]

Now, is the machine connected to a network and/or using a router?
