Good news....
After removing the WindowsXP hotfix Q328310 I was finally able to reinstall the Sony package successfully. However, I still couldn't get the bluetooth dongle to work. It wouldn't connect to my phone or even my husband's Nokia. In fact it seemed that Windows didn't even know when it was plugged in and out, no "New Hardware" notification or anything.
After no luck getting it working, we tried it on our other computer (Windows 2000) where it had never been installed before, and even there the OS couldn't detect the new hardware! So we called Belkin support and they said it was defective and we should return it. So, we did that and got a new one (same make and model). Now it works! Finally I have been able to successfully sync to my phone again! Yay!
The only thing is, now I'm scared to try the other sofware (the Sendfile, PhoneBackup, FMA) because that's what I was doing last time when it all stopped working. In particular I was using FMA when the dongle stopped working. Is it possible that the software somehow fried the dongle? I know it is written by someone who posts here (floAt) so I am not trying to offend or anything, just wondering, is that possible? I would like to use it but I am concerned.

Quick update: I decided to bite the bullet and start using FMA again, and it has been fine. Bluetooth connection and Ericsson software is still working great. Whew. Now I can use all software I have tried except "PhoneBackup", I don't know why, but that one never detects my phone (even though SendFile does). Strange stuff.
Anyway, I'm very happy that everything else seems to be working.
