God Bless You Shane. I had the same problem. Talked to network guru's etc. but no one knew the answer. Spent hours doing the same as others; trying to fix myself and looking on the net. Finally found your answer, disabled the "Stateful firewall" and had instant access to the "unpingable" computer.

PLEASE - Someone, anyone (I don't know how): Post this Cisco Firewall atrocity, and its solution, on the internet so that it will be easier to find for all the others having the same problem.
