I've been struggling with this bug as well, for me it started with updates I installed on 3rd sept even though I had no problems like this in karmic earlier (at this point I installed updates from about two weeks back though). It affects all network apps (not just browsers). I originally filed a ticket with my ISP because I thought it was their DNS servers that were slow.
