Does the laptop have a firewall which the desktop (and other users) do not?

I found the problem. It wasn't my firewall but the web filter on the laptop.
I had been running the Blue Coat K9 Web Filter.

I dropped down to the command line and used the subversion client with the
verbose switch enabled. It showed the driver for the K9 software was
complaining about a malformed Http Header. I uninstalled K9 and everything
is working.

Thanks for the help.
