problem connecting windows client over fedora firewall

Hi,

I'm having strange problems connecting a win2k client to the internet using my 
firewall/nat.

My fedora machine acts as DNS and does NAT. This works since all my Linux 
clients can connect to the internet very well.
The win2k machine is dual boot and the linux part on that machine also 
connects well.

The exact problem that I have is that when I want to browse a page, only a 
part of the page gets loaded and IE simply keeps on searching for the rest of 
it, but will never finish.This means that DNS is working.Also something gets 
through, so I would say nat is also working. It beats me why the pages stop 
loading.

I've tried so far :

1) upgrading to IE6
2) upgrading to win2k service pack4
3) upgrading to winXP (which I don't want, so I reinstalled the whole machine 
again to win2k and still have the same issue).
4) installed win2k on a different machine (same problem here).
5) Simplify my iptable rules to the absolute minimum needed for nat, no 
further rules applied.

some info on my net.
internet net is 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0
gateway is 192.168.1.1
DNS is also 192.168.1.1

Any ideas welcome.

Regards,
Marcel Janssen
