It seems I'm not the only one that has experienced this problem...
Mine started with about 3 websites that refused to load, they all came up
with the same error (I've attached a DOC file to show).
Some show trying to download from either the DNS or 404, but all are failing
to connect to the websites.
Went through all the forums, boards and microsoft's own knowleadge base and
followed most of the suggestions - but it all failed.
Now here's the weird part...
2 of the websites came back, all by themselves and I can't seem to find out
why..?
Now I know it not the computer, mainly because I borrowed my father's laptop
and the same thing happened to it.
And I've also downloaded Firefox, to see if it can see those websites. But
it completely timed-out.....
So the question is...
Is this a DNS server problem ....?
