Evan, Steve, thanks a lot for your supportive reply.
I indeed disabled the firewall and disabled all startup items via msconfig, too. Also, I did not change my host file.
A few minutes ago I have just deinstalled AVG Free 8 and - surprise, surprise - everything works again. I did not know that AVG Free contains firewalling features. Another lesson learned...
I thank you for your help!
Huck
