'Address Not Found' Problem

OK - easy peasy.... Windows XP? I can do that in my sleep....

Do this:
Go to Control Panel>Network Connections and select your local network.
Click Properties, then select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Click Properties.

A pop-up window will open... The TOP HALF (Obtain Ip Address automatically or Use the following IP address) - just leave where they are...

The bottom half of that pop-up will have:
Obtain DNS Server Address Automatically
Use the following DNS Server addresses
Under "use the following DNS Server addresses, you'll see entry boxes for a bunch of numbers. In those enter the following:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

Click the Ok button. On XP - you should reboot the computer afterwards, or you can reset the network manually?
