will do
I can reslove 72.14.207.99 to goggle.com in the browser window so its must be a local DNS issue

I'm assuming you have checked that it is picking up the DNS server (via DHCP?),
have you tried testing using nslookup from a command prompt to see that it is returning valid responses? You could also try a difference dns server, 213.208.106.212 being one I know works quite reliably.
