Hmmm. I'm not sure why it would not work in Netscape if it works
in lynx. Can you access say www.vianet.net.au without any proxy settings?
If I remember rightly netscape has some "DNS helper" or something,
perhaps that is broken. I don't know how that would happen or how
to fix it, just something that came to mind. I don't have any more
ideas unfortunately.
