I deleted the previous messages, so forgive me if you already answered
this. Can you ping the other PCs on your network? What is the output of
'route -n'?
Also, you might want to remove the line 'search earthlink.net'. All this
does is slow down domain resolution, unless you actually deal with
earthlink network systems on a regular basis.
How are you connected to earthlink? Dial-up through a gateway? DSL?
Something else?
