Pinging 208.67.222.222 from host machine and all machines in my office  
returns successful.  
Pinging 208.67.222.222 from djigzo fails.  
Could this be a VMWare Player issue? I have the latest version.

Like Martijn said if you really have the network 162.168.168.0 like  
listed above there is something wrong and you should check your  
network settings inside the VM.  
If it is a typo in the mail it get's really strange. If you are able  
to ping the machines in your local network the VM network is working  
and it should be no problem to cross the router if you don't have any  
kind of firewall on the router preventing it.
