I don't have much experience with the PIX, but at Networkers they did say that Cisco changed the way the PIX handled ICMP packets yet again. They apparently changed it like three times now, and think they finally have it where they want it.

[7:72352] I'm not very familiar with the newer releases of PIX software, but do you have to enable ICMP on those interfaces? It looks to me like you only have ICMP allowed going one direction. This is a very common problem and easily fixed. Also, if something is being blocked it should be apparent from the logs why it was blocked.
