My laptop won't connect to my wireless home network, what could be wrong? I've used the connection for a year?

Question

All the other computers in the house connect to my wireless network with no problem. The signal strength is excellent. My computer will find the network but cannot connect. I've tried "repairing" the connection but it just won't work. What could be the problem? It worked fine when I went to bed and the next day the problem started. I have physically disconnected the power from the router and reconnected and it still won't connect.
