I have peculiar problem on my computer
Every time I click on a link inside e-mail, or referring link from another program (e.g. registration link from software installation interface, etc), the browser will open as expected, go to a requested page as expected, but gives me a DNS error. If I click a refresh button, it will open the page no problems, and from this point will behave fine for the duration of the session: i.e., if there is a link on a web page, it will open it on a first try, etc.
The setup is as following:
– Windows XP
– IE 6 fully patched
– Norton Internet Security 3.0 (if I disable it, the problem still persists)
– Norton Antivirus 2004
– Computer is connected to a hardware router, connected to cable broadband
– Computer is configured to obtain IP address automatically, with the router being DHCP server
Please only reply if you have experienced a similar problem, and were able to fix it.

Arthur
