That "looking up" means that it can't translate the domain name (like google.com) to IP address (like 123.456.789.123). Maybe your DNS server is down or just lazy. Many people have problems with their DNS servers. Go kick your ISP about it. (That is if you're using your ISP's DNS server)

Check your firewall/s again, they treat 1.01 as a new program that needs new permissions set.
