After I logon to the internet through my ISP, I see the connection made, Logged on, opening page and then...connecting to 127.0.0.1? "Failed to find server." Have recent windows download (upgrade) and have both BlackIce and McAfee Anti-virus. Internet settings not changed. Dynamic settings. Any suggestions? Appreciate the help!

well, that is local ip address for NIC so you ain't getting out...can you ping your dns server when this happens? what error do you get? you may have to call isp and ask for ip numbers of dns servers so you can test. if you turn off blackice, does it work then? maybe blackice burped and you need to reconfigure it...
also try to release and renew your dhcp setttings. you don't mention your os, if win9x, do it thusly: Start/Run/Winipcfg /release then again with /renew switch. note any errors.
