Anyway, I managed to get back on by doing F8 and going to Last Known Good Configuration.
This wouldn't help since you've worked around your problem, but I felt like mentioning it anyway.

Yeah, tried last known and didn't work... and I think I also had Sasser on there, or got it when I reloaded before I got nortons and the firewall going... found a few viruses... couldn't access updates, couldn't access major anti-virus sites (symantec, McAfree)... after I got rid of them, had to reinstall windows to fix the files that were screwed...
but, all works... plus the wireless network is going, so I can pull stuff from my laptop, etc... maybe even get my ps2 connection going... ofcourse this might mean I'd have to use my ps2...
