I've seen this exact thing happen on a couple of occasions. You can ping the SB. You can ping machines behind the SB. I was even able to successfully telnet to a mail server that was behind the SB. However, accessing the web simply didn't work. DNS was fine, since you could ping using the FQDN. I never tried playing with MTU settings, but in both cases, I resolved it by power cycling the SB. Once I did that, everything worked fine.
