   One thing you should point out in a post like this,   
   is your network configuration. You've claimed in a   
   previous recent posting, to not using a router.   
      
        broadband-modem??? ------- Win7-PPPOE-termination   
      
   And that should significantly simplify the root causes   
   of failures to be considered. Sure, you could have a   
   Firewall, but it's the Windows Firewall. And you'd   
   look for any advice on punching whatever holes this   
   scheme needs, through the Firewall.   
      
   I have no idea what the requirements of Acrylic are,   
   but you've got that going for you, that there's not   
   much equipment to get in the way. Hell, I bet even   
   IPV6 works on your setup :-) (It doesn't on mine.   
   Only Teredo Tunneling can get out of mine.) )
