ok here is the deal and a little background on the issue.
Myself and our Unix dude built a Citrix NFuse site so we can publish our applications to our customers via the web instead of the citrix client. Marketing picked one of our bigger agencies to be our beta customer. Everything was going really smooth no problems with the customers employees accessing our site and running our app's.
Until they tried to connect with this one laptop. Its a IBM Thinkpad im not sure on the modle but it has a PII 400 proc in it so its not that old. Anyway, this lappy WILL NOT CONNECT to our website. It will connect to every website out there but ours. I have tried on a dialup connection and through network still no luck.
It had NT 4.0 on it, I ghosted it and then FORMATTED the boot drive and loaded Windows 2000 pro on it gave it a different name (test). started up IE and SAME FRICKEN THING!!! :| :| :| I then upgraded IE to 5.5 and then to 6 no luck. I changed some IE setting like opeing up to accept all cookies and authentication....
its a long shot, but anybody have any ideas? I will try Netscape and see what happens.

I loaded Netscape 7 last night and netscape works with no problems. I can get to the login screen and able to get authenticated and see the published apps. next i entered in no data for username/password and i got the same exact error as i do with IE. so that tells me that IE is not passing the values to be authenticated. What the hell???? Granted this is a IBM Stinkpad but could there be something in the hardware or bios that hoses up IE??? Im at a loss...
