I made a mistake, I keep getting error 404 message saying that the domain does not exist when I try to contact an internet site that I know worked before. Then it will automatically go to UPITER.COM site. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
Dave

sites do go down or are removed for reason from time to time. Can you give us the URL?? have you ever done an
C:\>nslookup url.name

this will usually return the ip address and or tell you it is not there. remember everything is in fact an ip address and the dns servers (or your local host files) just translate for you under the covers. try the nslookup on a site that is well known, like cnn.com and you will see if the dns is working.

the (j)upiter.com issue is another story. is it indeed jupiter or something else? run the nslookup on it and give us the ip, we would dearly love to catch them sitting on a dns server..........
