With speed problems such as you were experiencing the Firewall/AV is the issue in 95% of cases so it is usually a good place to start with to at least establish a baseline.

I can confirm that antivirus and firewall have nothing involved in causing isssues such as this it's the other 5% (how tipical of me to fall on such small odds, story of my life)
Has for the winsock fix windows xp sp2 (what Im using) has inbuilt commands to fix a currupted winsock... (just for viewers reference and futher understanding of theire PC's).
Start Menu>run>cmd (press ok)
**To view the current winsock catalog type on the DOS window type>
netsh winsock show catalog
**This will remove any non standard LSP (layered service provider) Any non standard installed will have to be reeinstalled...
To reset type on open DOS window to reset winsock >
netsh winsock reset catalog (tap enter)
Go to
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811259 for further interesting material on winsock2
And that shows me I have/had and will continue to enjoy a healthy winsock (nock on wood)...
Unfortunatly I have made these checks and even done what the tool you posted does but I rather not install/run any unecessary software/tool (even if it does automatically what I can do just as easily with a few taps on keyboard).
