You must be a bit more detailed. Is there one specific external web site that is not viewable? Several? Anyhow, this is not an issue related to Exchange. You should post your question here:

It is only one external website that is not visible. It is the company website.
The internal domain name is: company.local
The company website is: company.com.au
I hope this is explains it better.

If this a standard install of SBS 2008, you will have one internal domain called remote.company.com.au mapped to the internal IP address of your SBS 2008 box, for instance 192.168.0.2.
Now, given that the company web site is running on your SBS 2008 box, create a new domain for that web site on your internal DNS server and map it to for instance 192.168.0.2.MCTS: Messaging | MCSE: S+M

The company website is not running on the SBS Box. It is hosted by an external ISP.

If you have a zone for this domain on your internal DNS server, then add an A record for the first part, for instance: www. The domain zone would be mycomapny.com. The IP address has to the public one you are using on the Internet.
If you don't have a zone for this domain, add a new domain called
www.mycomapny.com and assign the public IP address to that domain.MCTS: Messaging | MCSE: S+M

We re-booted the Server and now we are able to view all websites. We will see how it behaves from here.
