[BlueOnyx:06300] blocking my home computer from web/email

[Jim Dory]

  Something is blocking my home linux box from accessing the work web 
and email server. I was trying to test last night whether I had the smtp 
sending of mail working from another ISP and could not get the website 
or email.

I have a router at home on DHCP connected to the local cable co. Our 
work internet is provided by different provider. If I choose to set up a 
static IP on the home router with a slightly different IP address  (I 
pinged for a close number to make sure it wasn't currently used) then I 
could connect to our work web/email.

I do have deny.hosts installed but nothing in the log file about it.

If I cat messages or dmesg I see these kind of errors, even though my 
home computer is on "sleep" and my attempts were last night (I've munged 
the IP address):

messages

> timestamp = 1294950602 blocking = 0 failcnt = 8 host_ip = 
> "66.58.xxx.xxx" host_fqdn = "xxx-xxx-58-66.gci.net"

dmesg:

Where do I look?

thanks, Jim
