[DM-MUG] One computer having a connection problem

[Jon Thompson]

Most likely you are accessing cached versions of these websites, and 
you don't have an internet connection at all.  The best way you can 
check that is to go to google and do a search.  If it comes up, you 
have a connection.  If not, your connection is down.

I would go in to System Preferences->Network->Ethernet->TCP/IP.  Then 
click on "Renew DHCP Lease".  If that doesn't clear it up, I would 
double check your connections, reset any routers and modems you have, 
then do it again.
