Almost all Internet apps stopped working after SP2

I recently installed SP 2 on this computer, because I had problems
connecting to secure websites. Now I can't connect to any websites, my
email doesn't work, yet I can access Usenet *only* using Agent.
I thought it might be a problem with DNS because I could still connect
to other computers on the Internet, including the web interface of my
router, but I can resolve and ping websites outside my network, I just
can't connect to them with IE or Firefox, or check my email. FTP
doesn't work either.

The Windows Firewall is turned on automatically when SP2 is installed - make
sure there are no issues there with it blocking apps.

Randy,

Create a System Restore point and try resetting the Winsock using NETSH
command-line. See the page below for more information:

Repair/Reset Winsock settings:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/winsock.htm

Note that the NETSH WINSOCK RESET command removes all the third-party LSPs
and you may need to install them (for example.. Google Desktop Search) to
enable the functionality of that 3rd party program.

Unfortunately this didn't help. The errors I get in Outlook Express
are socket errors. I.E.
"The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'nospam @
Rostie.net', Server: 'smtp-server.kc.rr.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port:
25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Is there anything else I can do short of reinstalling? The first thing
I tried was to disable Windows Firewall. I don't understand why Agent
works, but nothing else does, including other non-Microsoft apps,
(except I can connect to the firewall via Internet Explorer.)

When I connected the network cable from the computer directly to the
cable modem, it couldn't get an ip address.

I installed the netdiag utility and here is the output from it:
