What is the IP on the desktop? If your computer can't connect, it will assign a default IP to your NIC. This would put you an a separate subnet from your laptop as well as the router.
Compare the laptop IP with the desktop IP. If they aren't in the same subnet, that's your problem. I would then start troubleshooting by taking off WEP and seeing if I could connect without encryption. You may also want to disable Zone Alarm while troubleshooting.
Let us know what you come up with and we can continue if necessary...
Also, let us know your computer proficiency, so we know how detailed our discussion can be!
