Hi,
This may be software problem better go into regedit and find keys contains "Norton" and delete all norton related keys and try another anti virus else reinstall Xp or vista and start fresh.

I guess there is URL resolving problem, you can use nslookup to try resolving URL. If it fails, you can configure following free DNS servers from Google on computer and after that test web browsing again.
