You can go into your 'Services.msc' control panel and set the "Windows Firewall" service to "Disabled" and see if that will allow SmartDisk to start up.
Is there any antivirus software is running on the SmartDisk server? Some antivirus applications can cause connection problems, so try temporarily disabling any antivirus software and try starting SmartDisk again.
Lastly, is Network Load Balancing (NLB) set up in Windows on that machine? If so, that will *not* work with SmartDisk. Using multiple NIC's / IP's is only supported when the multiple network cards are "teamed", providing SmartDisk with a single IP.
If none of the above suggestions seem to help, when doing a search of the Microsoft Support site by searching on the Windows error in the trace, I found the following KB that I would suggest reviewing to see if the underlying issue is a problem with the OS's TCP networking services:
