What error are you getting

A client issue or a very weird firewall configuration. To cut out the client, 
try telnet to that www.google.com port 80 and see if you can get that. If 
yes, then your webbrowser is at fault. If not, then the issue is most likely 
either in your iptables config or not on your host.
