Firefox and Remote Desktop poop

After many days trying to get Firefox pages to load I started using Remote Desktop to access my client servers and noticed things seem to hang when accessing anything outside the local network. Also my Smart FTP program hangs when trying to transfer files!!

I tested these issues on 2 new desktops with Vista installed and the same issues happen. The first issue seems to be with the Firefox web browser surfing sites. It loads half the page then hangs.

The second issue is with Remote Desktop. It works perfectly on a local network but when I try to connect to a remote server it loads about 1/3 of the desktop then hangs.
