Besides turning off ipv6, the other solution people have mentioned is to explicitly list your DNS servers in your network settings (even if you get them via DHCP). MacFixit had an article on the problem around the beginning of November if you by chance have a subscription to access the archives. Also, you might want to check the Apple discussions on the support site. It has this thread (which discusses the DNS change and possibly re-doing a java update):
