In their IP config, do they have a default gateway & DNS server defined?
Can they ping your internal router/gateway by IP address? Ping a public DNS
server by IP address? Ping www.yahoo.com ?
What happens when they try connecting thru IE?

And you're using DHCP, so this desktop gets the same settings as others? You
have only your internal AD-integrated DNS server's IP set as the DNS server
in your DHCP scope, and have forwarders to your ISP's DNS servers in your
DNS server properties itself?
