If your connection is a wired one (eg: computer connects to DSL type
modem via ethernet), your problem may be with the DNS entries on your
(/etc/resolve.conf).  There are many ways to fix this, but  you have
to identify if the problem is this first.  To do this:
1. Open a console
2. Type "ping 66.249.89.99"  (That pings one of the google servers).
3. Type "ping www.google.com"

If 2. is successful and 3. fails your problem is the DNS issue.  If so
let us know, so the group can help you.
