I just installed the personal firewall that came with SuSE 7.1. And coincidentally cannot order anything on the internet: my basket is always empty. Does the firewall interfere with this kind of transaction?

It might. Try opening up port 443 (https) in your firewall. Some sites use this port for secure ordering. You may not be able to do this with the personal firewall, you may need to set up SuSEFirewall or SuseFirewall2, depending on your kernel.
