286868 2004-11-01 21:20:00 Hi I have experienced the removal of DNS IP addresses from LAN settings on a few XP PC's after adaware & spybot installed , run & removed spyware.

which is quite annoying as have to return to re add DNS
any one experience this ?
or no why it happens?

286869 2004-11-01 21:29:00 Nope I doubt that Spybot or Adaware removed them. I cant say I've seen this on any PC I've fixed either. What exactly do u mean by removed? disappeared completely?? Spacemannz (808)
286870 2004-11-01 21:45:00 Yes DNS completly gone from LAN settings


strange because the last PC i had this happen

runs as a power user & not administrator

Ive had about 6 instances where this has happend

Setting your dialup/Lan to "auto" should do the trick.
