Known problem with NVIDEA firewall. Even though the user never enables it,
one still sees this problem. Workaround that we've seen here is to install
the firewall if it hasn't already been installed, and then un-install it.

Curious - was it an uninstalled firewall again? Or had he installed it.

He said something about WinFW asking to block appache http... needed to
setup the nvidia FW. As I don't use it, I can't say more about it. Anyway,
he made a repair and fixed the fw issue. So far, so good....
