I would suspect a configuration or application problem with Kayak3. If you're running any sort of application level firewall on the machines, make sure it's configured to allow access to the internet. Barring any problems from firewalls running on the Kayak, your problem is probably configuration related. Verify the networking configuration of the Kayaks...make sure TCP is configured (an preferrably no other protocols, unless required...specifically, TCP and netbios is a bad combination), with TCP setup to auto-configure via dhcp. It sounds like you may have checked this already, in which case click over to the "advanced" portion of your tcp settings, and verify your DNS and WINS settings (should be set to automatic). It's possible to create a problem like you describe if you've got a bad DNS server manually entered (won't automatically get over-ridden by DHCP), and are trying to access the 'net using FQDN's, rather than IP's. Another test for this is to try accessing something on the 'net by IP address. If you're still stuck, post more details about exactly what "Kayak 3 cannot get past the gateway" means (ie specific errors from specific tests...preferrably command-line pings by hostname and IP).
