Stand-alone (home) machine.
Ping 127.0.0.1 works Ok.
Of course, Tcp/ip is enabled, in Server Network Utility.
But it listens only over Shared memory. From its ERRORLOG:

Never have encountered such a trouble with v.7.0.
But for some reason I need it listening, locally, namely over tcp/ip.

No, khtan. Not that.
I looked into Win_XP Event Viewer.
It turned out that tcp/ip and udp ports of SS are disabled (by SS itself, I think :) or by OS?) on purpose,
for the sake of my safety, lol. Event Id = 5400. It recommends to download a security patch for SS or service packs. But right now I can't download anything more in size than ~500KB. Maybe there is some key in registry
and to turn it on will be enough.

What do you mean 'tcp/ip and udp ports of SS are disabled'? Are they blocked in firewall on the server?

it's a notification from Application Events. It reads: because of recent vulnerability of ms sql server
(they mean Slammer etc) these ports are disabled. Download the latest service pack. Pity it's in Russian.
Firewall has nothing to do with it. WinXP Professional SP2. I don't know whose its notification.
