It sounds like authentication is not working. What type of security do you
have enabled? None, WEP, WPA-PSK, WPA-RADIUS, etc.? Have you tried
deleting your preferred network and then add it again?

That is correct. Just delete it, rescan, and then let XP configure it for
you. It should determine that WEP is being used and then prompt you to
enter the key.
