Have you been trying different firewalls lately ? type services in the run bar and click services then scroll down to windows firewall and make sure that it is set to automatic, if not double click windows firewall where you will have the option to set it to auto and start the service.

Yeah sometimes after removal of certain firewalls the windows one does not get reactivated properly, glad it's all fine now though.
