Ok.

You misunderstood me here. I just wanted to tell you where I got the IP
from which you should try running dig.

Ok, that is an important fact. It tells us that the problem is not with
the remote DNS server but within your on local network.
Did you compare the TCP settings your Windows® host has with the
settings of your Fedora box?
You may too run following:

a) in one terminal as root run:
tcpdump -X -i eth0 port 53

b) in another terminal run as normal user:
dig www.google.com +trace @206.47.244.57

The output of the tcpdump command will hopefully show us where the
problem is.
