Yeah, it's yet another stupid Windoze user interface glitch in
Wireless Zero Config. It's caught me a few times when I have changed
the WPA-PSK pass phrase on the router, but the client is too stupid to
notice or all me to over-ride the saved previous password.

Go into the properties for the wireless connection and find your SSID
in the list. Select properties and either enter the new password, or
just delete the entire entry. When you then scan for available
networks, it will show up again, and you can enter your password.
