unable to access web page on IIS7 server from other computers

I have an internal static html website that I need to move from a Windows 2003 server to it's replacement a Windows Server 2008 R2 with IIS7.  

I have the website setup in IIS7 and can browse the website on the locally through the IIS7 console.  The problem is when I go to browse the page from other systems I get "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"  I can ping the site name and the correcrt internal ip returns responses.  I checked the firewall and port 80 is open.

I am in need of guidance.

It was a firewall issue.  I put the web page on a subnet that we will be using and the server did not want to allow traffic to pass to it.  For now I have put the web page on the current subnet until I can figure out WS2008 firewall rules which won't be in the near future.
