    I've got some more info:
    On this laptop with Debian Testing installed, when I'm using the
    network at work, I can't access my POP mail server from Mozilla Mail.
    I also can't access the checkout section of any of my online retailers
    when using the Mozilla browser. But when I use my dialup ISP, they
    both work fine.

    So whats in common between connections for POP mail, SSH, CVS, and
    retail checkout pages?
