Can't access websites after logging in..

[Guest]

...such as yahoo email, msn email, ebay, myspace, etc. I am able to access the
homepages to these websites okay, but once I enter my user name and password,
the page just sits and sits, and after about two minutes I receive an "unable
to access page" message.

We just moved. We used SBC yahoo DSL and everything worked okay. Now where
we live, we are hooked up to a LAN where we just plug into a CAT5 ethernet
connection, with no external modem needed like with DSL. At first, I thought
that I simply needed to select or deselect an option under Internet Options.
I played around with that for awhile, to no avail. I then went into our
Macafee Firewall to see if somehow it was blocking these websites, but
everything seems to be running okay there too. I am out of ideas. Please Help!

Thanks

Andrea,

This sounds like a DNS or an MTU issue.
