Your problem sounds more like a routing or firewall problem than services, try
disabling personal firewalls running on the machine included the XP built-in
Internet Connection Firewall (which actualy is a packet filter). In any case it
doesn't hurt to know more about services :)

EASY is relative :)

Anyway, to access your ICF config go to Start/Control Panel/Network
Connections/Right click on your connection/Properties/Advanced

I would change those services to Manual or Disable. Most likely the IPSEC service blocks your access to your world server.
ICF is not running, so I see no sw firewall running.
How do you connect the machine to the net?

Hey Andras:)
The server is the one I use as a personal pc also.
It connects directly to the Net via dsl connection.
I'll try what you suggested and see if that helps.
This XP has way too much to offer!:)
