Oops! Then sorry. I tried the above site and it did not work for me (I am 
running Iceweasel 3.0.6 from lenny) so I -wrongly- thought that the URL 
was mispelled ;-(

Look:

sm01@stt008:~$ wget http://www.jonassan.org/maps
--2011-05-11 19:59:14--  http://www.jonassan.org/maps
Resolving www.jonassan.org... failed: Name or service not known.
wget: unable to resolve host address `www.jonassan.org'

I still cannot reach the site :-?

I'm afraid I still don't understand it, sorry. How is going an external 
IP to connect to you? Where are those IP coming from? Maybe you have some 
kind of add-on plugin enabled in Iceweasel that establishes those 
external connections? :-?

I can't even reach the site :-?

You should investigate what is happening with Icewasel, because it is not 
normal.

What?? I doubt Opera cannot make landscape printings :-O

Baut can you browse another site with konqueror or is just the one you 
mentioned which fails? :-?
