XP home firewall enabled, usually when i select my ethernet adapter it shows as firewalled, now it doesn't. I haven'changed anything,rebooted and thats how it was.

Can't figure it out myself.

I usually advise people not to rely on the xp firewall anyway, download a decent free one instead... sygate/zone alarm are the best imho, both downloadable from here

They are much more reliable and you can set them up with much more user specific settings, ie it will actually meet your needs properly!
