Thanks John,
The problem XP machine is wired through the router.
I have been able to connect to two other XP maches - one wired and one
wireless. I cannot connect to the problem
machine from either a wired or a wireless XP machine nor from my wired OS/2
machine but connections among those
other machines on the intranet work.

Note: The problem XP uses SKYPE and MSNMEssenger (which listen on other ports)
with no problem (also Firefox). I
was thinking of getting a telnet server or an ftp server for the problem
machine and see if I can work that. I regularly
transfer files using an FTP client on the problem machine.
