Re: PC Networking Problem

["Burns, Bryan" <Bryan_Burns@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Chuck,

I had the same problem on a shop floor computer once and our PC specialist said 
to wipe it, but I wouldn't give up looking and I finally found a button (or it 
might have been a tab) that turned IPSEC on or off.  The machine had it turned 
on, and when I turned it off I was able to connect.  This was a W2K computer if 
I recall correctly.

Zone Alarm? MacAffe? Symantec?  Etc, Etc.

Many/most security suites these days come with a software firewall.

I'd look in the add/remove programs.  Then, if those things are present,
uninstall them.  When problem goes away, you've found the culprit. If you
don't find the culprit that way, you can re-install one of them.

Eg: look for the easy stuff and simplify.
