WSUS and GPO's being filtered out.

I have successfully set up a WSUS and have a lot of clients connected to it. However I have a few stubborn clients that wont connect. they all run win xp sp2 and the following is what I get when I run gpresult. the gpo's are being filterd no idea where to go from here.

The following GPOs were not applied because they were filtered out

Check to see if those XP machines have their builtin firewall running. That firewall has caused me headaches more than I care for.

Is that information under the Computer section or User section of GPRESULT?

Under the Computer section - does the computer think it belongs to any security groups? It should belong to a handful at minimum.
