Actually, it's pretty much the same base issue. I went through that thread trying to find a solution, I changed my resolv.conf:
before:
domain [my work domain]
search [my work domain]
nameserver [my gateway]
nameserver [my gateway2]
I changed it to:
after:
domain [my work domain]
search [my work domain]
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4
However, any time I reboot the computer the resolv.conf gets overwritten to the previous version (the 'before' above).
The issues began after I installed virtualbox additions, X server and (specifically) LXDE:

The adapter in VBox is a bridged adapter directly onto my ethernet connection; as are my other 2 VMs (which work)
