(Almost) Solved.
It was a strange windows "feature"
From a console I typed dir | sort and it doesn't work!!!
So I tryed to open a pipe with a simple c program. I received a null file pointer on the function popen, so it was impossible to open the pipe...
I searched the web like a star trek captain. There was anything helpful.
I disabled firewall, antivir, I double-checked all services, registry keys. Nothing.
I tryed to use the nopipe compiler option (if I remember well) but after an initial compiling attempt it failed.
So I made my final decision: reinstall windows.
All problems gone.
Maybe a day I will be able to uninstall Windows once for all...
