Look like a problem with the nameresoulution. You can test it with a 
"nslookup setiathome.berkeley.edu"

I have tried this (in a "DOS box"). This is what I get:

Server:  dns-cache-la1.sunrise.ch
Address:  194.230.1.71

Nicht autorisierte Antwort:
Name:    setiathome.SSL.berkeley.edu
Addresses:  128.32.18.152, 128.32.18.151
Aliases:  setiathome.berkeley.edu

(... end of nslookup answer ...)

Comment: the line after the blank one is a German line probably due to
my Windows (XP home) being in G., it seems to me that it means that
what follows is not quite 'official' - or something like that.
Litterally: "not authorized answer" (may-be not exactly, my English
might be not good enough and the ambiguities might differ in both
languages.) But may-be this is not important.

Now, question to you: what follows for my problem ? My impression
is that my connection, my internet access (= internet provider etc.)
and my internet options are such that there should be no problem
in this context, i.e. the nslookup-answer seems to show 'all OK'.

Please understand that I am more or less a newbie for what concerns
such 'low-level' internet commands like ping, nslookup and the like.
In fact I don't even know where they are documented.
