Ok ... IE hides the real cause of the problem ... but let ignore that
issue for the time being.

Firstly do you run a firewall and/or (transparent) proxy on you lan?

Secondly what webserver are you running including version number?

Thirdly have you run a cvs update?

Can you install mozilla on one of the lan pcs ... to get the *real*
error message?
