There is definately some third party app or something apart from the
standard os settings going on if a vmware virtual os can surf. The fact
that your pings work means the routing table is correct. The fact that
it resolves the name, rules out dns. I would look closer at junk
buster.. I've not dealt with that app, but it must change some settings
to pipe traffic to itself when it is running. If the service is stopped
it should just not be there to filter the traffic, I would think it
would prevent surfing. Sorry, I'm guessing here because the mechanics
to allow you to surf have been verified and Junk Buster is the only
variable you have touched on that would sounds like an interesting
possibility. Are there any settings in Junk Buster that reflect your
default gateway? Is it possible to, at least temporarily set the router
to the address your previous router used and run the test?
