Vista and TC - Vista no longer seeing TC

Question

I purchased TC so that I could network my Vista (SP1) and Leopard computers. I wanted to add TC to an already existing network and to simply use it as a remote server to extend my wireless. Everything was working great for about 3 weeks. Now, suddenly I can't get my Vista comp to see TC. AirPort Utility says it's connected but my TC isn't showing up under "Computer" or "Networks". I've already reinstalled the software. My mac is seeing TC.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I think I'm going to pull all my hair out. I bought TC to avoid these networking problems. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!

Sounds like Malware on that PC. Sorry, I don't know what "Deluxe Shield" is or does, but this is our standard recommendation to deal with Malware.
Install, update, and run these programs in this order. They are listed in order of efficacy.<br />'''''(Not all programs detect the same Malware, so you may need to run them all to solve your problem.)''''' <br />These programs are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in the "free mode" - but those are features you really don't need to find and remove the problem that you have.<br />
''Note: If your Malware infection is bad enough and you are mis-directed to URL's other than what is posted, you may have to use a different PC to download these programs and use a USB stick to transfer them to the afflicted PC.''
