"Based on my personal experience with AdAware I would not suspect an AdAware upgrade to cause this problem. (But that's only my experience, not yours.)

Did you create a System Restore Point before the upgrade? Or perhaps AdAware was kind enough to do it for you? Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools | System Restore
Did you tweak anything else around the same time, no matter how innocuous it might have seemed at the time? (Did you upgrade your wireless card drivers, for example?)

As a last resort, barring any luck with other suggestions, you could always ""install"" your wireless card from scratch, which should (in theory at least) recreate the configuration necessary. But, again, that should be your last resort."
