You mentioned that the win2k clients can't ping www.yahoo.com.

Try pinging it by IP address. If you they're able to ping by IP, then it's a DNS issue. If not, check the gateway on the win2k clients.

How are you connecting to the internet? DSL? Cable? Dial Up? Using a router? Any firewalls?
What O/S are you running on your other clients?
Are the remaining clients able to ping www.yahoo.com?

I assume you have a Win2k DC and the AD domain mode is mixed mode. If so, do you have a DNS server installed on your network?
