I have virtual pc on windows 7. I have an xp virtual machine with one NAT network card configured. But I cannot to Internet.

Do you know why (firewall,.. ?)
 
Are you using the Shared Networking(NAT) under settings for the virtual machine? I have no problem connecting to the internet in any virtual environment (I'm using virtual pc and vmware player).
 
the virtual machine should be configured with network parameters as if were other machine plugged to the router / switch, it should browser without hassle.

I prefer to use fixed IP addresses since most of times I work with application servers, if you have dynamic IP address try with a fixed one.
