Gah - repeat after me: "ip_conntrack can loose the plot occasionally".  Just 
needed to restart the iptables fru-fru on the jabber swerver and all is well.  
Seems the ip_conntrack was b0rked after restarting the Jabber server this 
morning which also screwed local clients as well.  NFI why MSN Messenger 
wasn't affected....although the dude behind me was in the office and MSN-ing 
before I restarted the Jabber swerver.
