im using IE 6 with winXP Pro
when i try to open some websites, and its not the same every time
i come up with a dnserror (see the pic - hopefully it attatched)
as the pic shows, it happens even with google...
but a few minutes before taht it was fine

does anyone have any ideas?
thanks in advance

Did this just start happening?

if so, try this, all it does is remove tcp/ip and reisntall it (or reset it according to XP)

You need to go to a command prompt
---Start > run > cmd > OK
Type in netsh int ip reset C:\resetlog.txt

then reboot your pc...... its worked for customers a lot of times

 

[rick_422]

yeah, well, im not sure, it kind of comes and goes
and it doesnt happen all the time
i will do that thing jkoXP said soon
thanks guys

cheers

with your ISP, are the DNS addys assigned by server automatically? or specified? if automatically, you could try specifing them, that may help also

WHOOSH!
mate, that pretty much went straight over my head...
would there be something about the DNS addy at my ISP's website or something?

possibly, or you could call their tech support, they would be able to provide those also.

did you try the tcp commands i suggested?

 

[rick_422]

yeah
i tried the tcp commands
the thing is, it only happens every so often....and every so often isnt that often
and it hasnt happened since the tcp commands, so maybe they did work
i might have a quick browse through the web site later
thanks for your help jkoXP
greatly appreciated

cheers
