TCP reset flag present when trying to browse internet from any PC at location

Hello All,

      I am experiencing a strange issue at a customers site. Last night they had a power outage. This morning they reported that they could not browse the internet from any PC at their location. The customer has a DSL connection connected to a PIX 506E connected to a layer three switch. I am receiving a TCP reset flag sent from the web server of the site I am trying to browse. I can ping ip addresses and preform nslookup but I can not browse the internet. I have tried telneting to a webserver on port 80 but I receive nothing. My http web capture is below. Any suggestions why this is happening. I am currently waiting for the DSL company to call me back.

HTTP web capture:

Thank you. WE actually traced the problem to Websense somehow causing this issue. After disabling it on the PIX is fine.
What was the fix?
Please provide the fix... :)
