I'd normally says something was wrong with your bookmarks, but not on both programs. Start Terminal (in Applications/Utilities) and type the following into the box: host www.cnn.com report what you get. I get this: dbdev2:~ johnson$ host www.cnn.com www.cnn.com has address 157.166.255.19 www.cnn.com has address 157.166.255.18 ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached Which means there's some networking issues going on, whether locally (to me) or at cnn or somewhere in between. When I do: host www.apple.com I get: www.apple.com is an alias for www.apple.com.akadns.net. www.apple.com.akadns.net has address 17.251.200.32 17.*.*.* is Apples Class A network.
