Try another dns server than your isp.

I'm curious to know if you Comcasters used the opendns servers instead of Comcast's dns servers, would this make a difference? I know it only helps the resolving end and some pages should start loading a bit snappier than most isp's dns servers will allow.

»www.opendns.com

The nameservers are 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220

This worked for me. I tried DNS flushing with no avail, but including this DNS serves solved the problem. I'm on Comcast.

Also, if you don't change the DNS servers but use the actual IP address of google in the address line instead of the domain, it loads perfectly. These two things (changing DNS server and direct IP input to get to google) indicates to me that something is wrong at the DNS level with Google.
