My Vista installation corrupts the DNS cache so frequently that I wrote a batch file and placed on my desktop.

This does not work. I ran the command and got the confirmation message, but when I type : ipconfig /displaydns it still shows that everything is in the cache and nothing has been removed.

The only difference between a “newb” and you is experience with a pc, Steph. Oh wait… you didn't know how to work the Vista cmd…..

How to flush the DNS Resolver Cache if temporary problems are preventing accessing a

particular website. Windows XP caches DNS entries (these change human-readable names such

as malektips.com and google.com into IP addresses that allow communication over the

Internet). This way instead of having to access a remote DNS server every time you

re-access the same web address, Windows can use the cached entry to speed communication.
