First times VLC sends IGMPv2 reports, now it starts to send IGMPv3 reports. How can I change this back? How I can configure VLC to send to the router IGMPv2 reports instead of IGMPv3 reports?

It's not VLC who decides whether it sends IGMPv2 or v3 reports, but
rather the OS. The only thing VLC tells to the OS is that it wants to
receive the data sent on a multicast group. The OS should detect itself
if the network supports IGMPv2 or v3. 

As a consequence, you problem is rather a Windows XP bug (or
configuration issue) than a VLC one...
