If you upgraded from an earlier version of Windows instead of a clean install, I could see where the old registry that was dragged along, might have caused this. Otherwise XP seems to be quite strong in this area, contrary to your unfortunate experience. Try re-installing XP from the CD, over the top of your current installation and see if that fixes it.
