Web browsers won't load pages even though I'm connected to the Internet

I turned my laptop on last Saturday and IE and Firefox both refused to load my homepage (google) or any other page in my bookmarks. I have. Uninstalled and reinstalled both, even going back a couple of versions and still nothing. I know I'm connected as my iPhone works fine. With this in mind, I tried opening up safari to see what that would do and to my supprise, it works fine, bit slow but still, at least it works. So now I defiantly know that the Internet is working. I have now downloaded chrome and opera to see if they worked and neither of them did. So out of all the web browsers out there, only safari works and I'm almost ready to throw the laptop in the skip!!
