I have disabled the Norton Internet worm program all together for testing.
from a computer on the 192.168.5.x network I'm still unable to ping this
computer at 192.168.0.3. I can however ping the gateway 192.168.0.1. I even
tried turning off all firewall features within the router that is controlling
192.168.0.xxx. It didn't help.

My routing table on the main router (192.168.5.0) still looks like this:

Desination Subnet default gateway hop interface
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 216.27.xxx.xx 1 WAN
192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.5.2 5 LAN
192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.5.3 5 LAN
192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 1 LAN
216.27.xxx.xx 255.255.255.xxx 0.0.0.0 1 WAN

I sure hope you have some additional suggestions or test I can do.

Once again, Thank YOU!

Start the 192.168.0.3 computer in "Safe mode with networking", and see
if you can ping it. If you can, then Norton is probably causing
problems even when it's disabled. If you can't ping it even in that
mode, I'm out of ideas.
