| 474616 | 2006-07-31 08:37:00 | ok, i entered "ping www.idg.co.nz" and many variations thereof, once i realised g is not q, i got: pinging www.idg.co.nz [1.0.0.0] with 32 bytes of data request timed out. ditto ditto ditto 100% loss etcetc i never knew you could ping a url :) i can ping www.idg.co.nz from other pc's on the network and i get the right ip |

| 474617 | 2006-07-31 08:45:00 | Ping it again, this time without the www. eg: ping idg.co.nz Hmm ... you edited your post after I posted. I see you managed to ping the www.idg.co.nz address from the other computers OK. The fact you cannot ping using name, suggests the domain name settings are incorrect. Put this into your browser address bar, hit enter and see what happens: 216.239.37.99 |

| 474619 | 2006-07-31 08:53:00 | Well, how about trying this www.snapfiles.com Could be winsock error.. |

| 474620 | 2006-07-31 08:53:00 | Sounds like a DNS problem caused by corrupted winsock files Download and run the winsock fix www.snapfiles.com Also might help to post a hijackthis log to see what other things you may have picked up. |

| 474623 | 2006-07-31 09:20:00 | well, it failed to backup the regisrty, made a very high pitch, loud beeeeeeeeep while repairing, and now it works (after rebooting itself and taking a while to load once i got to the desktop, probably as everything simultaneously tried to update) thanks guys :D i will post again if anything crops up |

| 474624 | 2006-07-31 09:23:00 | Next time but a Mac and you won't have these sort of problems. In fact you probably won't have any problems at all. |
