Entering "ping -n 1 etax.dor.ga.gov" at a command prompt returns "unknown
host etax.dor.ga.gov" which is not surprising since part of the "analysis"
of a traceroute for 167.196.94.159 (etax.dor.ga.gov) at dnsstuff.com
includes the statement "There appears to be a firewall at 167.196.94.159
(hop 19) that blocks ICMP (ping) packets."
I am unable to pursue your "hint" at the moment as I am working from home
with a machine running W98 (the W2000 machine is at work).
Will try the "hint" when I arrive at work later this morning - please
clarify what I am trying to "find before and after the above command".
Thank you.

Have one machine running IE6 under W2000 SP4 that is unable to access
www.etax.dor.ga.gov.
It may help to describe in detail what the symptoms are.
E.g. "unable to access" is extremely vague and could entail
a problem cause which has nothing to do with IE but more to do
with the OS networking functions such as DNS
E.g. a workaround might be as simple as: before trying to open that page
switching to a cmd window and entering:
ping -n 1 etax.dor.ga.gov
Hint: do an ipconfig /displaydns and a right-click Find for etax
before and after the above command to see why it might be helpful.
Good luck
