Just my 2c. We have also experienced this on a few PC's. 

A connection string of:

localhost:c:\MyFolder\MyData.fdb 

gives the connection rejected error.

Changing to:

c:\MyFolder\MyData.fdb

resolves the problem.

We haven't managed to get to the bottom of it yet, we usually just end up using 
the local connection string, but it would be nice to finally know what's 
causing it instead of using the workaround. Unfortunately, once the workaround 
is in effect, we then don't end up with much time to scrutinise the person's PC 
to  find out what the problem was.
