I used TDIMon  to see what "try.exe" does. 
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/tdimon.shtml

It appears to use port 80, the same as Internet Explorer 
and as I understand it that is the normal http port.
I am not an expert on TCP/IP communications and do not 
have any idea why it doesn't work on your system.  The 
system on which I tested it communicates over an Ethernet 
connection to a Linksys router and the router connects 
to a cable modem which provides the connection to the web. 

It might be time to ask one of the IT guys at work why 
you can't connect.  He may have a tool which can easily 
tell you what is going on that it objects to.
