In the Ubuntu PC, I tested both FF 2.0.0.6 and Konqueror

I'm in this wierd situation:

I have two desktops in the same network accessing the Internet via the same 
gateway without using any proxy.  One is a WinXP machine and the other is 
running Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty).  But have no firewall active and have the same 
Primary, Secondary (and even Tertiary) DNS servers configured.


Accessing Yahoo! Mail is no problem in both machines.  But while I don't 
encounter problem with Y! Mail in the XP machines, in the Ubuntu PC, images in 
the email (those that are linked from another site rather than embedded) are 
not being loaded completely -- mapapansin mo na sa lahat ng images mga 25% 
(topmost part of the images) lang ang nagload.


Accessing Hotmail, the WinXP machine is able to login properly.  The Ubuntu 
machine just
 hangs at "Loading Windows Live Mail".

In some sites, it takes Ubuntu forever to load completely, in some sites the 
web page doesn't load.  No problem with the XP machine visiting the same sites.


What could be the problem?
