Your post is too light on details to get focused help. See the end of my
reply for a better way to post. In the meantime, your computer is set to
get DNS from this organization:

If this is your company and the computer is part of a domain, contact your
IT Dept. If this is a standalone computer, set your computer to obtain and
IP address and DNS automatically.

While you're there, disable IPv6 too.
If you need more help:
You are not posting on a real forum as you think you are and you didn't
quote any of the thread to which you are replying. You are using a web
interface that leeches Usenet posts and most of the rest of us are using
real newsreaders. We don't see what you do. If you want to participate in
Usenet, the better way is to set up a newsreader. This is very easy to do
and I'll give you information about that below. If you prefer to use a
forum, then here are two excellent ones:

Since you are using a web interface, you may not realize that this is really
a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn to use
a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you can use
Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have it.
Here are some links to information about newsgroups:
