There's a long thread discussion about this on the opensuse mailing list.
http://www.marymount.edu/ and http://www.keh.com/ are the only two sites so far
known to exhibit this problem. The thread was started by Chip Cooper at
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2006-12/msg02707.html because the subject
URL is his work web site.

To reproduce:
1-open any web browser in 10.2 
2-try to open subject URL or the alternate URL

Actual behavior:
1-perpetually "waiting for www.marymount.edu" (e.g. from Firefox)

Expected behavior:
1-site opens fully in short order

Notes:
1-firewalls, proxies and hardware are not factors
2-most who try fail to reach site (very few reports of success)
3-failure also using Debian Etch 2.6.18-3 and Fedora 6 2.6.18-1 on exact same
system as 10.2
4-failure does not occur in 10.0 2.6.13-15.12 or Ubuntu 6.10 2.6.15-27 on exact
same system as 10.2
5-failure in SUSE occurs with 2.6.18.2-33 and 2.6.18.2-34 kernels, default and
bigmem
6-booting 10.2 with 2.6.16 kernel solves problem for the OP
7-booting 10.2 with generic 2.6.19 solves problem for me
8-failure also occurs attempting to fetch URL with wget
9-ping and traceroute also fail to reach the URL
10-as yet no reports of useful information from anyone who's tried wireshark
