Android Emulator - No internet connectivity

Question

I know that there are several threads posted about this issue, however I believe my problem to be a bit different:

I had my Android emulator working without any problems (using Eclipse plugin). I could start the emulator, run applications, and those apps would be able to connect to my computers internet. I then updated the Android SDK's (as I wanted to try out my application on 2.2). Since the update, the emulator will not connect to the internet. If I go to the browser, the page will not be displayed. I have tried everything - reverting back to the 2.1 SDK, even completely reinstalling Eclipse + Android, and the issue still remains.

I know that I have no firewall/proxy type issues. What could be causing this? Does anyone have any ideas? I'd greatly appreciate it...

Thanks!

In particular "It doesn't seem to like systems that have 'obtain DNS automatically' set. I changed it to manual set to Norton's Public DNS and the emulator browser works straight off "
