i am on xp sp3

Right-click on the O&O-service and start it manually. Check it's properties and set it to automatic install and reboot. If that still doesn't help then I'd contact O&O. If you purchased the software, then it's their duty to care about their customers. If you don't limit yourself to a single program, then you might want to check out other defrag-programs. If I remember correctly then O&O is the only one that uses services to connect to the hard drives. Others don't have that extra possible obstacle.

Unblock it through your firewall. It's designed that way, to listen/communicate through TCPIP.
