Cannot find server or DNS Error

I have asked and received help previously on Nov 2 and 4.
But despite all efforts so far no such luck. I'm on ADSL
via a router, could a router setting cause this while
messenger and netscape continue to work?

Same problem and same symptoms. Installed new updates now
IE won't connect to any pages. Other Browsers work, as
does AIM... Tried re-installing but it says a new version
of IE exists, but there is no Microsoft IE available to
Add/Remove.

Went through the various articles. Still nothing seems to
be working with IE. Any more suggestions.

BTW: I really apprediate your help.

I probably forgot to mention I'm using XP.

Go to Start | Run and type

ipconfig /flushdns

Seems to be a problem with ADSL and Cable modems connected via a
NIC. I found that disabling the NIC then re-enabling gives a
temporary fix until the real culprit is found. This problem started
for me when I installed one of the security patches but I'm not sure
which one.

Exact same problem for me, been using Netsape, but would love to have it
fixed if you ever find a solution. I will forward as well if I figure it
out. Good luck!
