My guess would be that an intermediate router between you and the ISP has
port 135 blocked because of the blaster worm.  That was the quickest way to
keep it from spreading.  The other quick fix was blocking TFTP(69).  You
might want to try to set up a temp TFTP server and see if you can get to
that.  If not, looks like a blaster defense.

Hi Steve,

Client for ms networks is bound to the dial up.. though I feel it probably
doesnt need to be.. can anyone verify that?

Do have software firewall on client (w2k), but it is currently disabled.

Richard

No expert, but things to check....
You definitely have the Client for MS Windows bound to the dial-up?
Also, if it's Windows XP you don't have any odd Firewall in XP for the
dial-up?
