Check with your ISP and make sure your DNS settings are proper.
And, search your boot drive for a HOSTS file and make sure there's not an entry pointing to some other IP address for google.com
 
I'm having the same problem. I've scanned for viruses...and I'm clean. I ran Ad-Aware....and I had nothing but some cookies that I deleted. I also checked my hostfile...it's clean!

I dunno where to go now. I might just ghost my comp back to my last ghost and make sure it's not me. If it isn't then I'll call comcast and bitch. It has been working though.

Oddly enough..i can reach www2.google.com
