Gilbert,

Has this always been a problem, or did it start recently? Any changes recently
to any system?

Try swapping network cable / hub connection between one of the working computers
and the problem computer. Try hardware diagnostics on the network card on the
problem computer (My Computer - Properties - Device Manager - (find the network
card) - Properties - Troubleshoot).

Possible corrupt LSP / Winsock.

If XP SP2, Start - Run - "cmd". Type "netsh winsock reset catalog" into the
command window.

Give LSP-Fix <http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm>, WinsockFix
<http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=257>, or WinsockXPFix
<http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html> a shot.

If no help yet, reset TCP/IP.

Start - Run - "cmd". Type "netsh int ip reset c:\netsh.txt" into the command
window.
