              Excellent advice there guys

              Try these commands Darren:

              Display Connection Configuration: ipconfig /all

              Display DNS Cache Info: ipconfig /displaydns

              Clear DNS Cache: ipconfig /flushdns

              Release All IP Address Connections: ipconfig /release

              Renew All IP Address Connections: ipconfig /renew

              Re-Register the DNS connections: ipconfig /registerdns

              Change/Modify DHCP Class ID: ipconfig /setclassid

              Network Connections: control netconnections

              Network Setup Wizard: netsetup.cpl

              Test Connectivity: ping whatismyip.com

              Trace Route: tracert

              Displays the TCP/IP protocol sessions: netstat

              Display Local Route: route

              Display Resolved MAC Addresses: arp

              Display Name of Computer Currently on: hostname

              Display DHCP Class Information: ipconfig /showclassid

              NameServer Lookup: nslookup whatismyip.com

                  If You are using Windows 7 , there is no "Dos prompt" . Most likely What they had You open was "command prompt" using elevated permissions (run as administrator) and type IP config /flushdns to clear bogus domain names cached .

                  click on start , all programs , accessories and find command prompt in the list - RIGHT click on it and select "run as administrator" . You can then type in any of the commands that were listed in the detailed posting prior to mine
                  done
