Well..I finally figured it out with the help of on irc bitcion chat.
He mentioned it could be some firewall somewhere that is matching something in that block to an antivirus signature
He was right, I turned off my sonicwall gateway antivirus and it started moving and fully sync'd right up.

So...an oddball one, hope it helps someone in the future. I turned back on my gateway antivirus after it sync'd. I'll report to sonicwall a false positive, but they likely won't do much about it
