Do you have the ability to cross reference these users Ray, too see what Firewall/AV software they may have in common? That could go a long way towards pinpointing the guilty party.

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
suggested here yesterday, it might be a Norton thing, or a combo of
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.
