This was the answer, in an attempt to gather more information I created a
dual boot on my windows 2000 machine, with 4.2 installed from the newest
snapshot. My server was running 4.1.1-STABLE. It was not able to connect to
those sites either, so I set it up as the router, and then I was able to get
to the sites with my server. So I rebuilt my server with the latest
4.2-STABLE snapshot, and now everything works..

Thanks for your help,
Dean

If only I knew my trip to work this morning to fix a down Microsoft SQL
server was going to go so smoothly..... I can dream can't I..

Are you running the newest version of ppp?  My friend had a similar problem.
Take a look here:

http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/ppp.html#PPPoEwithNAT

In section 10.27 in the last paragraph:

"The latest version of ppp (2.3 or greater) has an enable tcpmssfixup
command that will automatically adjust the MSS to an appropriate value. This
facility is enabled by default. If you're stuck with an older version of
ppp, you may want to look at the tcpmssd port."

I think FreeBSD 4.2 and up has the newer ppp.

Ciao,
- Will
