Most likely cause: (I've run into this exact issue several times myself)
Your internal Win2k DNS server thinks it is the SOA for the Internet DOMAIN
in question.
Simply add an A record (on your Win2k DNS server) for the website in
question pointing to the IP address assigned to it by your ISP.
You can't add a reverse lookup PTR record, since you are not the SOA for the
subnet in question, but this should not be required.

It sounds like your web is on a separate domain. You can build a new zone
(primary) in your dns server. That will give you the ability to see it. If
you replicate with other dns servers, do not include that zone in the
replication configuration.

Hard coding was my next step. If I use the ISP's DNS servers instead of the
internal one it works just fine how ever when we do this the mail goes down
the tube. I don't really know what the ISP let's in and out of there fire
wall the cust has a cheese ball little firewall one of the pick and choose
variety. the only ports open are http, smtp, and pop.

Did they hardcode the address in the dns?
And is it replicated to all the nameservers registered.
And is the ISP letting it go out the firewall?

A customer has a pure 2000 network. From the inside we are able to resolve
all names internal and external with the exception of their web page which
is hosted off site. The internal DNS forwarders are set to talk to the
ISP's DNS servers. All of the ISP's DNS records are correct. The ISP hosts
their web page. Anybody got any ideas.
