I've never heard of WINS causing this error, you can certainly get the error
if you have your ISP's DNS in TCP/IP properties.

Hope This Helps
============================

Yep, I agree. Need to remove the ISP's DNS addresses (or the router if in
there) from IP properties from the DCs and clients and recommended to use a
forwarder.
