What you're describing is simply a lost network connection. As you say, the computer cannot connect to the internet - at all - so pages can't be retrieved, and the error you see in the browser is the result. If you have other machines on your local network, you probably can't see or connect to them either, until you reboot.
The issue here is power management. When you put a computer into standby, software it not unloaded, but left in memory while most all of the other hardware is turned off to conserve power. When you resume from standby all that hardware is turned back on, and then needs to not only be re-initialized, but it needs to be restored to the same state it was in before standby. That's when things can get confused.
I think you need to follow these steps!
1. UPDATE your BIOS!
2. UPDATE your DRIVERS!
3. UPDATE WINDOWS!
I had the same problem & I fixed my system by disabling the on board nic card and installing a regular card, some onboard nics just want work with vista even if you have the drivers.
I had a similar problem with my PC/Vista and adsl router, once I updated the Forceware (nvidia) which included my onboard network drivers it was okay, and hasn't lost the connection since.
Check with the manufacturer of your network card for an updated vista
driver, it might help.
