Mike,
There are a number of possible causes for your symptom. The most commonly
reported cause is a misconfigured or overlooked personal firewall. What
anti-virus protection do you use?

You may be able to diagnose the problem, using logs from "browstat status",
"ipconfig /all", "net config server", and "net config workstation", from each
computer. Read this article, and linked articles, and follow instructions
precisely (Download browstat, and note how to open a command window in Windows
Vista!):
