Try disabling ipv6 in the browser.  about:config, search for ipv6, and set disable to true.

Hi,

  I used to lurk/participate a long time ago. I'm having an ubuntu related problem which I haven't been able to figure out or find and answer for. I have an ubuntu 11.04 64bit machine which I use to host a windows 7 64bit vm. This LAN here is primarily a windows environment. The problem is that web access is excessively slow from the ubuntu host but nice & fast on the windows vm. Actually, I also cannot access any local network machines by DNS name which tells me there is a DNS problem. Again, this is only on the Ubuntu side; the windows vm works fine. I tried using the google nameservers for ubuntu but that doesn't make a difference that I can tell. I also don't see the problem by comparing the network config for the windows vm and ubuntu. Oh, and I did make sure ipv6 is disabled because we aren't using it here.

  I would really appreciate any help with this. Let me know what information I should post if anyone cares to help figure this out.

Thanks,
Josh
