I don't have any virus scanner... the only firewall is the one that
comes with XP, which only blocks incoming connections. And in any
case, the firewall is turned off.

After further experimentation, it seems that I can't get TortoiseSVN
to work at all through Paros Proxy--it always hangs after the two
OPTIONS requests, so perhaps my testing with that didn't mean
anything. Not sure why that's the case though--I can browse websites
(http and https) through Paros without any problems. Maybe Paros
doesn't handle the DAV requests properly.

I also enabled HTTP access to the SVN repository and switched to
accessing the repo through HTTP (without using a proxy), and so far, I
haven't had any hangs. Switching to HTTP isn't a good option for me
though, since I often access the repo from outside the LAN, and don't
want to send my password unencrypted.

I'm also going to try using the commandline svn client.
