desperate call for help: "The underlying connection was closed: Unable to connect to the remote server.

I have a web service running on a server.

With my brower, I can get the asmx page and get the expected output on the
page.

With a console application, I can call the webservice and retrieve from it
what I am supposed to retrieve.

Only when an ASP.NET application calls the web service, do I get the "the
underlying connection was closed: Unable to connect to the remote server"
error message.

The only relevent msdn page
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;819450) isn't very
helpful. It says MS has confirmed it as a bug, and says to contact them
for a fix!!!! And there might be a charge! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

The last time I contacted them, it was like talking to a wall.

Thanks. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
