Marv, now I don't really know what could be happening.
Ping is working both ways, with the ip address and the name. Here is
what I got from konsole:

pastor@PASTOR:~$ ping google.com

----------------------------------------------

But the problem is that Konqueror doesn't connect to any website yet.
I'm not behind a firewall or proxy. Konqueror is using the same
configuration I've always used under Windows (direct connection to the
Internet).

There is a screenshot attached to this e-mail with my connection details.
