(First of all, I apologize profusely for top-posting; Gmail Java Mobile client for Symbian can only top-post) There seems to be a glimpse of light for my situation... In the netfilter mailing list, there's someone having a problem similar to mine, i.e., unable to access some websites but no problem with other websites. His web proxy is behind a firewall who was DROPping packets incoming to TCP/80. When he changed the rule to ACCEPT, those websites work. (Although there weren't *any* process listening on TCP/80). I am going to experiment with my firewall rules on Monday.
