 I'm using the VMWare image, and had run into a strange problem with
 surfing and telnetting to web sites. The problem exists since R1a2, and
 I've experienced it in R1a2 official build and in R38627 nightly build;
 however, it does '''not''' exist in version R34784.

 The problem is represented by the following behavior: I can ping and
 resolve just about any site on the Internet, but I can't browse to them or
 even telnet to them on port 80. The request is sent, but the answer is
 either not received or not treated properly.

 === Symptoms ===

 * Pings are fine → that means at least UDP works.

 * Using any browser to any site, both to the hostnames and to IPs →
 "Waiting for reply..." until timeout.

 * Telnet to any site on port 80 → "Trying <Correct IP>..." until timeout.

 * SSH to my account on Berlios.de or to my account at the university → No
 reply, then timeout.

 * SSH to an invalid host → I receive a message "Could not resolve
 hostname" (which is correct, thus resolving works).

 === Software ===

 I'm using VMware Workstation 6.0.5 or VMware player 2.0.5.

 Haiku versions which suffer from this problem are from R1a2 official to
 R38627 nightly including.

 === Attachment ===

 The output of tcpdump while trying to telnet to www.haiku-os.org on port
 80.
