omair: did you try the pdns-recursor workaround?
maybe this can help you until there is a fix.

install pdns-recursor via synaptic or apt-get. 
then edit /etc/resolv.con (sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf) and set nameserver to 
127.0.0.1

if your problem is only in firefox you can disable ipv6: enter
about:config in the addressbar and confirm the warning. then enter ipv6
as a filter and double click on network.dns.disableIPv6 (after this the
value must be enabled)

hope this stops you thinking about windows 7 ;-)

default due to IPv6 DNS lookups
