I have the same problem as the guy who was having DNS/NBNS issues.
I have one system that uses NDNS lookups for every internet site I want to see (IE or Firefox). The system can ping any IP address and will not resolve any DNS lookup.
The trigger for this was (believe it!) was I set a proxy address for a UK based proxy server, and when I removed it later, the system would not get on the internet unless the proxy was set back up.
First, check the hosts file for curious entries. Also, what does a tracert to an internet ip address show?

tracert cannot resolve the name, but it will trace and IP address.
I can ping the IP but not the name.Hosts and Lmhosts have no unusual entries. Both IE and Firefox have had all proxies disabled.
wireshark shows that any attempt to use a DNS is being sent out as a local subnet broadcast (192.168.0.1/24) and is an NBNS query.
Thanks for the questions.
So at the command prompt try:
arp -dand
ipconfig /flushdns
Then give tracert another try.
Btw: What was the first hop on tracert <ip address>?

Did the f;ushdns same problem. I can't get the first hop when I use the domain name, tracert needs to resolve the dns before doing the pings.
When I use an IP address the first hop is my local gateway 192.168.0.1
So you simply have a DNS problem.
What DNS server is shown on:
ipconfig /allBest is, you'll post the output of ipconfig /all.

Not so simple. I'll get the ipconfig /all output later. When I see the packet monitor output, any action that would normally produce a dns request, actually produces a netbios name service request.
I will get that output also.
ipconfig /all > ipconfig.txt Open the text file and use copy and past for posting it here.
