It sounds like the machine is running SecureClient and not SecuRemote.
SecureClient acts as a personal firewall in addition to being a VPN
client. It gets its policy from the gateway it connects to and that
policy is probably blocking inbound connections. They are actually the
same product/installation, but choices made during the install determine
which version is activated.
Even if you stop SecureClient the policy is active. You need to disable
the policy before you stop the client. It is an option on the client
menu. That would restore your connectivity to/from systems other than the
remote VPN. Keep in mind that depending on how the gateway is configured
it has the ability to check if the policy is disabled. Disabling the
policy might cause the VPN to fail.
