linux guys: any ideas on goofy network problem?

Have you ever had the case where a totally new computer with a totally fresh Linux install has had the network work fine in terminal, but not in any other apps? My brother tried Fedora 4 and now Ubuntu, and he can ping, curl, wget, all of that, but programs like Firefox fail to connect to anything. It just doesn't make sense.

Has anyone run into this?
