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...

 My wife has a G4 Powerbook. We replaced the AC adapter cord once
 already, but it is not charging again. I have carefully pinched the
 metal part to make it fit more tightly, but still no power. The
 battery is weak, but it was still working as of two days ago. I don't
 need it to work for long, just long enough to copy a document to a
 thumbdrive.
 
 I don't know anyone in the area with a battery that we could swap
 until the job is done.
 
 Help!
 

I have to turn them till I get a connection quite often, if that doesn't do it 
and you tested the voltage in at the DC board then the DC board is probably bad.
