Reinstall XP or repair to fix internet connection?

I recently cleaned a lot of crap and useless files from my hard drive.
Everything is great, except my internet connection is not as good as it was.
Some programs cannot connect to the internet, while others work just fine
(for example, IE works, but Firefox does not). How can I restore the
internet connection so that all the programs connect?

Asked and already answered - in great detail - in the other newsgroup to
which you posted. Please don't multipost; it makes more work for everyone
and will get you *less* help, not more. See this for why:

If you have forgotten where you posted or can't find your post, use Google
Groups Advanced Search and search for your name.

The answer to this question would interest me also, but I have not
been able to find the other newsgroup Malke is referring to; could you
please provide a link?
