I can't connect using TCP/IP in my multiplayer games anymore.

Earlier I had no problem playing multiplayer games over the Internet.
Now when I try to start a multiplayer game with TCP/Ip i get problems.
It was quite some time ago that I played over the net so many installs/uninstalls has happened since.
In Heroes of Might and Magic 3 i receive the error: "Error initializing TCP/Ip connection, try again", in Disciples 2 the option for TCP/Ip doesn't exist anymore, only hotseat. I can play Unreal Tournament using Gamespy Arcade, but that uses the IPX protocol.
All other communications works properly, except that I can't send/receive video in netmeeting.
I don't know what has happened, I tried installing XP again (As upgrade) but the problem persists. I use a ADSL connection, no router or firewall.
Pinging my gateway gives good results back.

ICQ, Internet, Direct Connect, POP3/SMTP and my FTP Server all works as they are supposed to.

Please help...
