So standard network troubleshooting applies: 

 $ host www.google.com 
www.google.com is an alias for www.l.google.com. 
www.l.google.com has address 72.14.205.99 
www.l.google.com has address 72.14.205.103 
www.l.google.com has address 72.14.205.104 
www.l.google.com has address 72.14.205.147 

I can ping all those addresses.  What does your DNS say and can you 
ping the addresses returned? 

 $ telnet www.google.com 80 
Trying 72.14.205.99... 
Connected to www.google.com.

The 'HEAD / HTTP/1.0' is the part I entered; follow it with two carriage 
returns. 

Did you get any closer?

if everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.
