"Direct connection" is selected.

I can enter the IP address for google and it will open the google search page. When I enter a search item it will find it. But it will not recogzine www.google.com.

When I enter www.cnn.com I get the message:
    "The connection timed out"
    "The server at www.cnn.com is taking too long to respond."


Yes I agree it is Firefox the is the problem!

Thanks,
Clay
