Internet Connection Help
NA | vanity

Posted on 03/01/2011 12:08:02 PM PST by Mears

I cannot connect to one website using Firefox or Internet Explorer.

All other websites go through just fine.

I was able to connect with the problem website from another PC today so the problem is mine,not the site's.

OK, the first step is to see if you have DNS resolution.

Open a command window, type in ‘nslookup’

At the prompt, enter the domain name, such as ‘google.com’

It should answer with an IP address. If it says it can’t find that domain, you don’t have DNS resolution on your DNS server.

It’s a computer allergy. The chips in your computer are allergic to that site. There are some rare, expensive pills that I can get for you if you just FReepmail your banking information...

What’s a command window? (See what I mean about being challenged)

I had been able to access this website until 2 days ago.

What’s a command window?

Click Start
type in “cmd” (without the quotes)
a Command Window will pop up (black screen)

I got the black screen ——typed in the URL and got Democraticunderground.com not recognized as internal or external command.Inoperable program or batch file.

I then did again using freerepublic.com and got the same message.

I’ve been visiting DU for 10 years.

I am now going to bang my head against the wall.
