I just checked remotely the computer on 192.168.0.3 and windows firewall is
off and no 3rd party firewall is running. The only thing I see is Norton AV
2006 has that Internete Worm program running. Will that block a request from
192.168.5.xxx? Also could there be a firewall or other setting in the router
for 192.168.0.xxx that is blocking 192.168.5.xxx?

Yes, the "Internet Worm Protection" in Norton AV acts as a firewall.
It needs to be configured to allow traffic from 192.168.5.xxx.
