Fedora Core 2 - Can't get mail, download or browse web pages - Follow up

[Lane Inman]

Going through the list:
  1) nslookup works fine;
  2) ssh works fine
  3) bittorrent works fine
  4) If I use IP addresses for the web browser it works fine.

The issue seems to be using the browser with names; this occurs with 
both lynx and mozilla.  It looks up the name fine, but never "retrieves" 
the information.  My FC-1 machine (from which this message is coming) 
has no problems.   Any clues for the clueless?
