Check your /etc/resolv.conf and make sure the nameserver entry is correct and that you can ping that IP address also if it is different from router/gateway IP adress. If you have a search line try saving copy of resolv.conf and take out the search line.
If you still cant serf after that then post output of
ifconfig
route -n

ok, I can ping 216.239.41.99 but not surf
www.google.com (the hostname), I can ping my router as well. I'm told that it is going to the direction of a DNS problem (I use DHCP).
ifconfig is:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:20:ED:56:B7:15

route -rn gives:
