it permanently. Good luck

Can you ping your DNS server?
If not, thats the problem
If you can try doing an nslookup to somewhere that you can't access and see if it resolves.
If it does try pinging the ip address for that site and using the IP in your browser instead of a url
And if all of that works phone you ISP and shout at them for a bit, it won't get it sorted any quicker but it usually makes you feel a bit
better about it
Cheers

nslookup times out on everything at the moment. As does just pinging anything. It just says that DNS request timed out.
I have a feeling maybe the university dns is playing up. Sometimes you can access other sites, sometimes you cant.

Its a DNS problem at your ISP the DNS system is the intenets phone book it translates www.something.com into a numerical ip address,-- every 24 hrs
DNS updates get passed around the web sometimes some glitch happens when an update is in progress and it gets corrupted.
Only way round it to point your PC (or the router) at any other DNS servers on the web -- you can any dns server you can get the address of.
Try some of these

Your ISPs DNS servers acting crappy and not resolving for you? Or do you just want to check out if your DNS changes are propagating properly? These

Thanks BT
Seems to have solved at least part of the problem. The only sites that arent working are the university hosted pages now. Looks like there is some
network issue on central campus (all internet stuff is handled there)

Some viruses like mucking around with the lhosts file... But that would be machine specific....
Sounds like a DNS issue though.... Perhaps the uni has been victim of DNS cache poisoning....

All seems to be working now  I checked all the obvious stuff, like the cache and hosts file for suspect entries. Nothing present thankfully
Always worrying when the internet stops working at uni though
Thanks for the help

When using a connection with unreliable DNS servers a good trick is to install Treewalk DNS on the Windows PC, it acts a as caching DNS server it also
can help speed up web browsing a little.
