error: 26 - error locating server/instance specified

My machine is WinXP with SP2. I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer
Edition on my machine last week, and I could bring up the Microsoft
SQL Server Management Studio fine, no error.
Today in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio when I tried to
connect to machinename\SQL2005 (the SQL 2005 instance), I got the
error:
"An error has occured while establishing a connection to the server.
when connecting to sql server 2005, this failure may be caused by the
fact that under the default settings sql server does not allow remote
connections. (provider: sql network interfaces, error: 26 - error
locating server/instance specified)(microsoft sql server)"
But, I am not trying to connect to it remotely, the SQL Server 2005 is
on my machine.
In the Start >> Programs >> Microsoft SQL Server 2005 >> Configuration
Tools >> SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration >> Surface Area
Configuration for Services and connections
"Local and remote connections" is not selected.
How can I fix this problem ?
Thank you.
Never mind.
On the "Server name", i click on Browse more and select the instance
from there, I guess the machinename is different today than last week.
So, I selected that one and now it works.
THanks

error.log invalid protocol specified

I get the entries shown below in my error.log of
an msde on WinXP home.
Where does this Invalid Protocol specified for a ?
come from ?
Should i run svrnetcn.exe to configure protocols ?
Is it true, that I have to install MSDE with
DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOL=0 set to access it from
a remote site ?

MSDE sp3a and MSDE release A install by default disabling all network
protocols in order to protect the installed instance from malicious external
attacks..
if you want your instance to be accessible from remote client you have to
enable network protocols at install time, via the DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOL=0
command line parameter or anabling them after install via Server Network
Utility (svrnetcn.exe)...
