the P2P application may be hijacking your internet connection. It may set your internet options up with a proxy that it uses to connect, which does not have DNS Service which is required for your other applications to work. You might try changing P2P programs. I recommend Shareaza, it is spyware and ad free and it searchs all of the common networks.
Oh, it also might be a spyware problem, so try running spybot search and destroy, adaware, and ms antispyware.

Probably the P2P application is taking control of your internet connection.
