Ok, so here's the basic tale. About an hour ago, things stopped working. I was on three websites at the time (this one, another forum and something else I can't remember) tabbed in Firefox, when I noticed images weren't working. I went to go to another site, and that wouldn't work either. IRC, MSN and Skype were working fine at this point.

Then I rebooted the router and my PC. That normally fixes everything. ¬_¬ Not so in this case. I can only access this forum (but anything on this forum. I.e., anything starting with http://67.19.230.90/~arles/forum/, I can't even access www.greydogsoftware.com), IRC, Skype and MSN.

So, clearly, it's a DNS issue.

Any help? I would ask.. well, anywhere else other than a completely unrelated forum. But my options are sorta limited right now :(

Contact your ISP; there's been a rash of DNS cache issues the last few weeks, it's possible they might've gotten hit.

or you could have a messed up pc like me, I have to go in and disable and enble my connection, every 20 minutes or so, or else windows looses my connection to my own cable router. :(

Its a long shot but try restarting IIS Admin services
