Default Can see network, can't see Web pages

My Win 98 machine is connected to company LAN. I can see the server and it's
drives, other computers on the network, etc, but I can not see any web pages.
When I open Internet Explorer I receive a "The page cannot be displayed"
error. I can ping the company server as well as google's IP address and
their full name (www.google.com) successfully. Any suggestions?

Thank you, JG

Network gateway/router/hub has a rule made concerning internet access, it is
probably set to only allow permitted subnet addresses access. Open router
config dialog, amend rule to add the IP of the new pc to the permitted list
