if the firewall is out then only 1 of 2 reasoons exist i think
1) windwos is stupid and not pinging right, or just ignoring linux alltogether
2) your linux computer was set up to not respond to pings, i know u can turn off ping in the /proc sysem, but i 4get what file it was
edit: ok ig ot bored, and been looking thru the /proc FS
can u tell me what the output of this comand is?
less /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all
