Jim:

Something is interfering with the machine's access to the database. Could it
be that a popup blocker is installed on this machine? Any other type of
browser add-ins? Is the browser an up to date version?

back to the PWA Home Page.  When I go to the Configure Server page, the
machine hangs for an inordinately long time, with the Loading data...

minutes).  When it finally does come back, all that really happens is the
hour glass goes away and the Loading data... message is still there, but the
connection appears to be dead. No data is updated on the server.

I can get to the server via the MS Project 2003 client and open and publish
projects and other data just fine.  It's only PWA that has issues.  All the
other machines access PWA just fine as well.  The machines are XP Pro.  The
browser's homepage is not Google, so the pop-up blockers should not be an
issue.
