I have a problem browsing with opera which started when I upgraded from
Mandriva 2007.
I cannot access any pages on the web at all. The web can be accessed
normally using other browsers such as Firefox or Konqueror. My email
program and newsreader also work OK, so I would appear that my internet
connection is OK.
I am now running "Mandriva Linux release 2008.0 (Official) for i586"
The browser shows:
Error!
Network problem
You tried to access the address
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page,
which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address
(URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.
Make sure your Internet connection is active and check whether other
applications that rely on the same connection are working.
Check that the setup of any Internet security software is correct and
does not interfere with ordinary Web browsing.
If you are behind a firewall on a Local Area Network and think this may
be causing problems, talk to your systems administrator.
Try pressing the F12 key on your keyboard and disabling proxy servers,
unless you know that you are required to use a proxy to connect to the
Internet. Reload the page
Running opera -debugdns and trying to connect to Wikipedia gives the
following output:

The primary DNS (as shown by my router) is 194.72.0.114
Any ideas on how to correct this problem?
