Default Connected...but no connection

I'm having problems bringing up websites on my laptop despite the fact that I can get an excellent wireless signal and a valid IP address with any wireless network I come across (my own, friends, Panera...) Two days ago I could pull up any site I wanted but now I'm getting a "try again message" every time I bring up Firefox or IE. I have tried disabling and enabling the connection, switching my card on and off, reseting my wireless router and restarting my laptop but still no success. Any suggestions?

A little background information, I recently updated to XP SP2...could this have something to do with it? It worked fine afterwards but it's the only change I've made with the laptop in months.

Under the properties of your wireless connection click wireless connections and remove the connection in question and reconnect to the network again. The profile for that connection (and probably all of them) have become corrupt. This is a common and known issue with XP.
