I have tried it at 100mb full duplex, and 10mb half, and the problem still
occurs. I have run ipconfig and netstat and can find nothing out of the
ordinary. The pc node type is set to Mixed. Should this be set to
"Broadcast"? Also, why is the communications to the internet only shut down
in IE and Outlook, yet works through a command window ping?
