CLEAR DNS CACHE
 BL Bishnoi ji saath h

Each time a user visits a website, Windows stores its DNS information in DNS cache. This is done so that the website is loaded faster the next time the user visits the homepage. Now, there are two type of entries that are stored in the DNS cache i.e. Positive entries and Negative entries. Positive entries are stored when a user can connect to a website and vice versa. But at times, there are instances wherein a user cannot connect to a website if there are negative entries stored in the DNS cache even the website is viewable. Several users might also receive a DNS error. Clearing the DNS cache can also solve the problem as well as other internet problem. To clear the DNS cache in Window Vista:

            Go to ‘Start /Accessories /Command Prompt’.
           
Right-click ‘Command Prompt’ and from the context menu, select ‘Ran as administrator’.

On the command prompt, type, ‘ipconfig/flushdns’and press the [Enter] key.
