No access to any microsoft site

I have just added another computer to my home network which uses ICS (all
win2k) internet connection is fine except i cannot access any microsoft site
( microsoft.com, updates, msn.com, hotemail etc)the browser sits there trying
to open the site for as long as I let it with no error message. all other
websites are fine, and both other computers on network can access microsoft
sites ok. Have tried IE5, 6 and even firefox and all behave the same. O/s is
windows 2k sp3 ( unable to access ms site to update!!)

Please help

did you check if you have disabled this microsoft sites in your site
security ? and also check if they are present into your hosts file
