Hello. There are quite a few Articles on this problem in the Microsoft Knowledge base.
(http://search.support.microsoft.com/kb/c.asp?ln=en-ca)
I had this problem recently, mine ended up being a defective NIC on the server. I was running a gateway system, and the internal LAN NIC was the problem. So double check and make sure all your NICs are running properly.
If you check in the MS KB, there is an article on changing the reg entries on several OS's to change the way they act.
If your browser service is failing due to a conflict with the Master Browser system, the registry problem will fix that for you.
