Do you have a dynamic IP address or static? If it's dynamic why don't you try flushing your IP address and see if that works.

If you get on MSN i will help you, ungrateful rat.

But seriously, i had this problem once too. Do you work on a router? Maybe your router screwed up, and you have to fix it.

In my case, i had a virus that redirected me to a "invalid website" page everytime i went somewhere.

But yeah, seriously, get on msn.

I use a wireless broadband usb modem. I cleared my cache, flushed dns, and still can't even access google without a proxy ;_ ;

Heh, actually... fixed ^_^; thanks guys

Sweet, get on msn anyway.

Well,
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh interface ip delete arpcache
worked in the end when run as Administrator.

Yes, I'm on msn now.

Good Job! Did my advice play a slight roll in recapturing your memory?

Lol yes, actually.

I didn't even know it was a dynamic ip at first.

Cool that makes me feel pretty good and helpful. Happy I can assist a little.

And here I thought ClouD was a computer expert.

Pfft.

Glad you got it fixed, man.

Lulz sometimes I over think things.

Also, I was hoping to hear the calm, soothing IT professional words of Ynot.
I may have to wait until next time.

(I know you fixed it )

Are you using a network bridge or running the "Routing and Remote Access" service?

The ARP Cache shouldn't normally be corrupted... :/

Really just was annoyed when it said "required elevation", instead of flushing the dns.

It's because I had to run as Administrator (which I had to google to realise), though I decided I would delete the ARP Cache, just in-case(?).

I'm don't fully understand, anyway. I just have learnt how to deal with certain problems since I seem to have them so often.
