How are IP addresses assigned on these systems? What is the system in question's IP address set to?

I have found out what the problem was it was zone alarm I had to put the ip address of my lap top into the trusted zone and then it was fine.
thanks for the post.

Great-- it's always a good idea to mention in your posts what your network setup is, including what types of firewalls. Glad you're fixed up, though!
