Library 2.0 -- a Ning Social Network

To get the ball rolling, I am setting up a Library 2.0
social network on
Ning <http://www.ning.com/>
. It is called "Library 2.0" and the URL is
http://library20.ning.com <http://library20.ning.
com/> . I will send out
invitations when it is setup minimally. I want to open it up
to all
Library 2.0 advocates and enthusiasts to mold and manipulate
and to
congregate. I even created a logo based on the universal
library symbol.

getting lots of hits
today as it is running slow. They are also experiencing a
few technical
problems according to their blog.

I'm having a problem over here and I can't figure out what's
going on.
Recently we got in six new PCs, set them up and put them out
for the public.
We have had no problems with them until now.  Around the
same time we got in
a new one for a staff member.  We also have four
"old" PCs that were set up
with security so they'll only access the library catalog
over the internet.

These computers are unable to access the internet as of this
morning.

They are on the network, can see other computers on the
network, they just
can't get to the internet.  The staff computer has a
172.16.2.X address, the
public ones are all 172.16.3.x.  Other PCs in both ip ranges
can access the
internet with no problem.

The staff computer is plugged into a different switch than
the public
computers.  Other computers on both of those switches are
not having a
problem.

While all of the public computers are secured with Microsoft
Shared computer
toolkit, the staff computer is not.  While the six new
public computers and
the one staff computer are the same Dell model, and arrived
at the same
time, the four catalog computers are older ones.

I cannot figure out what they have in common, or why they
are unable to
access the net.  Can you think of anything to check?  I have
looked at the
firewall, but no changes have been made recently, and I also
looked at the
content filter, but again, no changes lately.

Thanks for any help you can offer.
