The obvious thing to check is your DNS in resolv.conf, no? I assume that you already have? I do remember this was on questions, recently: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-questions/2003-July/thread.html#11329 FWIW: mozilla has issues; and for me, it was a different one. I also tried the Path of Making Deinstall to no avail. I've found that it is almost always some other thing that needs tweaking, or even deleting, and letting mozilla re-create it at next invocation. I only relate this because re-compiling it is very time-consuming. HTH.
