Default Blue screen crash when connecting wirelessly

Whenever I connect to limewire over my wireless ethernet connection my pc crashes with a blue screen and has to be rebooted. When I connect to the router using a network cable it works fine. It is a new 3Com Officeconnect 11g router. I am using XP Pro SP2 with all latest updates. The message i get on the blue screen is:

Driver_irql_not_less_or_equal

w22n51.sys address F828B988 base at F8217000, datestamp 404c5c4c

When the PC rebooted i sent the problem to microsoft and the directed me to Intel for an updated driver(wireless 9.0.1.0 - generic TIC 90281). I installed this and restarted but it has not fixed the problem.

I have enabled the gnutella network in the windows firewall connection properties as suggested in the limewire support page.

The wireless network is encrypted using WPA but I have had no problems with any other program when connecting wirelessly.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks in advance
