Check your hosts file and make sure your virus scanner is up to date.

Do you have a DLink router? If so, give it a kick in the pants (aka reboot). Mine used to do this once in a while - only seemed to affect ebay though.

 

[rh71]

try this as a test then...

http://66.212.229.233/ (partypoker.com)
http://66.161.12.81/ (dictionary.com)

Do a traceroute and see if where the bad router is, then call your ISP and bitch to them about it.

If it's beyone their network, they'll most likely tell you to get bent.

Uhh, not if he can't reach half the internet. That's what routers are for.

When someone says (Oh Sh!t) it reminds me of this nightmare and of course that song gets stuck on my mind!

Why anyone thinks a different DNS server is going to help him get past bad routes at his ISP is beyond me. He would the IP's of all the sites he regularly visits cached, so not reaching them is obviously not a DNS issue.

 

[sao123]

Oh noes...teh Internet is broken...

Quick, someone find the broken link
