That verifies that *you* have two way communication.

ColdFusion, even running on localhost, does not run as *you*, unless you have told it to. By default it runs as 'localSystem' on Windows, on Unix it will run under the user defined at install time.

It is quite possible for there to be cooperate domain policies that allow you to access the internet, but not a generic 'localSystem' user.

One way to test this would be to configure the ColdFusion service|daemon to run under your user name and password. Not an ideal, long term solution, but a good test.

This makes a lot of assumptions about your details. This is a problem with your system and your network connections. Those are the people you are going to need to be working with to find out why this is not working.
