Hi,

the lsp-fix did the trick. As you supposed it
was a personal firewall (however a great product,
called armor2net personal), which unfortunately was broken
with the winsock lib.
Strange problem with it however, that it hasn't got any
problems with the earlier version of Postgres (last i had to
use was: 8.0.4 on win32)

I reconnected my windows-integrated firewall, which
caused some problems, but i managed it to work
(System Properties/Advanced/Performance -> Settings/
Data Execution Prevention/Turn on DEP for all programs and
services except those I select: Add-> psql, pgadmin, postmaster)

Thanks for the help,
Istvan

This sounds a lot like broken firewall, broken antivirus, broken
antispyware or such software. Take a look with
http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm to see what you have there - most likely
at least one broken LSP.

Turn off is often not enough, you need to uninstall.

No, the intergrated firewall should work fine, as long as it's not
blocking the connections (meaning if it's disabled, it shouldn't be a
problem). It's known not to have the LSP bug.
