One particular Windoze XP machine at work keeps falling off the network, possibly relating to an infection by W32.Downadup that we can't seem to get rid of.

At least I've now figured out how to get it talking again without having to restart it.
To wit:
"The answer is pretty easy- run services.msc and enable Workstation."

A pox upon the idiots who refuse to convert this place to Mac OS X.
