This doesn't tell me a hell of a lot as to why the browser is unable
to open the web pages, and more specifically why three browsers on two
machines failed at the same time.

I can only guess that our systems have somehow been compromised by a
virus or trojan which has eluded my AV (Norton Anti Vrus 11.0.11.4)

I also turned Norton Internet Security off and tried to connect, but
no go.
