Can you ping the Exchange Server by FQDN? What error are you receiving?

Any other third party software such Symantec or Trend Micro Firewall client
on the computer. Check to insure these are not blocking the rpc traffic
needed or outlook to run properly. Can your run Outlook Web Access on this
computer successfully?
