Nope, they are blocked all the time (on their machine, of course).  And the
DB is an access DB, so I am pretty certain it is not that.

I really think it has something to do with Firewalls or, as someone

both.  I just don't know what to have the users try to disable/enable, etc
if it was something like that.

Thanks for the suggestion, tho.
