If so what is it? If not Start > run > cmd > nslookup > www.mansion.com that will do a dns lookup and see what IP address you are being given for mansion... Title: Re: Any ideas? Post by: ifm on January 02, 2007, 02:27:48 AM 195.244.202.51
Title: Re: Any ideas? Post by: Bongo on January 02, 2007, 02:36:26 AM I get 85.159.120.30 as does an external source.
So it sounds like you're getting a bad DNS result - are you using any odd server settings or proxies? Have you checked your hosts file? Title: Re: Any ideas?

Have you checked your hosts file? everything fine, no proxies. Every other sites work fine, i have disabled everything i can think of, security levels are all now lowest, FF is the same, just an error. Title: Re: Any ideas?

Post by: ifm on January 02, 2007, 02:49:50 PM I have been running scans for virus, malware etc since last night, an online scanner picked up 2 viruses but my leccy went off before it completed it's scan doh!
Anyway a scan this morning with my installed avast foung KUANG2 trojan virus which apparently is port related so may be a solution. Currently running AVG scan to find the mystery othe virus (i remember when virus scans took about 10 mins, with computers having so much capacity these days they now take a few hours!!!). I have 2 AV programs installed yet neither picked up on the virus(es) when they got in!! Byron said the same last night, after he found 3 viruses!!! Title: Re: Any ideas?

Title: Re: Any ideas? Post by: ifm on January 02, 2007, 03:18:40 PM What AV do you usually run? AVG and Avast, they work together ok. |
