What happens if you try to open Google? What web browser are you using? Have you tried using a different browser? Have you cleared all your browser caches?

Does anyone know if Google just upgraded like Facebook recently did
and thus close us out?

No.

Do this: Create a new test user in the System Preferences Accounts panel.

Don't use this account for anything but troubleshooting issues.

Log in as this user and see if you can open Google. If you can, the issue is somewhere within your user prefs or caches. If the problem persists, then the issue is either systemic or the third party is no longer compatible with your stuff. I seriously doubt the latter.

As I said in my post, I was using Safari (5.0.6) and Firefox (3.6.28). Sea Monkey 2.0 worked to go to gmail website but very slowly. Any other website that I go to gives no problem in any and all of the above browsers. I created a new user as suggested and Safari still did not go to google, gmail but did work for other sites. The other suggestion, download TenFourFox latest version did work! I can navagate to gmail and search with google, this in my regular user file. I did a safe restart and also used DiskWarrior. No help for Safari or Firefox so I made TenFourFox my default browser. I think that it must be something with Google because 3 different apps are affected: Mailplane, Safari and Firefox. Thanks for the help, it is much appreciated. If there are any other thoughts on this...
