DNS problem

I have two connections, this works fine but the other cannot take me to
tekforums I get to 7 soft instead.
Can I flush DNS in any way ?

open up a DOS Prompt and enter :

ipconfig /flushdns

Will not work

have restarted firewall/proxy have run ipconfig/flushdns added secondary DNS nothing works
what is the current IP ?

smartwhois says "host unreachable"

if I use IP 88.208.195.49 shown in smartwhois I get to
7soft even on this machine

?

That is the correct IP. Are you trying www.tekforums.co.uk or tekforums.co.uk ? The latter will not work.

Yeah I saw that in other thread that will prolly work

Did not work with www at first but when I remembered I had the old IP 88.208.200.117 for www.tekforums in the hosts file so I changed to present IP and it worked

Yer that would have been the problem, resolving to the old ip address.
