Windows XP Internet Issue in Parallels and Bootcamp

I used to use Apple BootCamp V3.x and Parallels V6 to run Windows XP on Mac )SX 10.5. It would work with either option. About a year ago, I upgraded to OSX 10.6 and Parallels V7. At this point everything worked well still.

About a month ago, upgraded to Parallels V8 Build 8.0.18354, and also upgraded OSX to V10.7.3, I also upgraded Boot camp to Version 4.0.1 (429). I do not remember creating a driver disk and loading any new drivers. I basically did whatever happens when Apple updates your software.

I can no longer use my internet and do not know why. I do not have any diver errors according to windows. I am currently using XP in Parallels under Network shared mode. I can ping the DNS, I can ping the router and I can ping my Mac OS all work fine. What I can not do is connect to the internet.

I get a "Waiting for http://www.apple.com/.." in the explorer status bar, that eventually tries google search and comes back with a this address is not valid response on IE as if I typed in a bad URL.

I have disabled my fire walls, reinstalled parallel tools, removed all of the VPN's and Cisco client that had previously existed on my computer and still have no luck. I have removed the Connections and re installed the network connections from XP in both bootcamp and parallels.

I am not sure what to do or where to go with this at this point? An IPConfig /all looks exactly as I would expect it to...
Code: 
C:\Documents and Settings\wacollin>ipconfig /all

As mentioned I can ping everything (Except Apple.com - which resolves the IP)

I do not know what else to try but would appreciate any help in resolving this problem. I get basically the same results when using other browsers.

(Included a tracert) I can trace to the DNS, but not when it looks for apple....
Code: 
C:\Documents and Settings\wacollin>tracert apple.com

What's 192.168.1.1? Is it your actual router or the host IP? 10.4.127.254 is also a private non-routable IP address.

No matter what that's a private IP, not anything beyond your house, so the traceroute is pretty much useless.

Try ping/traceroute to something like 8.8.8.8 (one of the top DNS servers).

EDIT: Plus apple.com doesn't even respond to a ping.

Code: 
$ nslookup apple.com
Server:		192.168.1.1
Address:	192.168.1.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:	apple.com
