Recently, I started having problems browsing in 64-bit XP.  All command line utilities work fine, as well as serving things with IIS, but anything network-related in the UI seems to go stupid.  Accessing the network connections folder, or the connections tab of internet settings just hangs.  If I boot in safe-mode everything works fine, which leads me to believe that the firewall has something to do with it.  Of course, I can't seem to turn it off because it isn't enabled in safe mode, and won't respond in regular mode.

I thought I'd get this out here to see if anyone googling had a similar problem, and perhaps had a suggestion if they'd fixed it.
