I have the same problem as Steve except we are using W2K.  It was working fine, 
then we switched to another DSL provider.  It now works from some locations and 
not from others.  All users are trying to access from their homes, a mix of 
Cable, DSL and dial-up.  The Dial-ups seem to have more success.  The symptoms 
seem to be the same as Steve is reporting.  It displays the logon screen then 
starts to load and just appears to hang.  I spent several days working with 
Microsoft on this last summer.  They first had me turn off WebDAV because they 
thought some servers may not be passing these packets..... but that did 
nothing.  They still that it was a "packet passing" problem and suggested I use 
SSL so the packets would be passed without interrogation.  Now, maybe I should 
use SSL but it still should work this way.  I still have the problem and any 
insight would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Kelli

It's the same users from their homes all the time, so it's on a mix of Cable 
Modems and T-1 lines. No Proxy servers involved. The all have XP with IE 6 SP1. 
It's not a firewall issue as I can access it from my home no problem with the 
same configuration as do others.

Can you tell more about the exact scenario... does it happen to them all the 
time... have they tried it from the place where you are using your XP from, are 
you behind a firewall or something... are they using a proxy server to access 
internet ...

Quick question for all those out there, has anyone ever had a problem using OWA 
from an Windows XP Pro box? I have a couple of customers who claim that OWA 
doesn't load for them, it just hangs after loading a couple items with the 
obligatory loading.... prompt in the window. I have XP Pro and can not 
replicate this error nor can I find anything useful on TechNet (what a shock). 
If anyone has run across just such a scenario please let me know your 
experience.
