    Windows XP: Google not Loading..

    Hey Guys,
    A couple of our customers are having trouble accessing www.Google.com, both are working on Domains and the other PC's are fine. I am able to access Google when I type the IP address so its something effecting the DNS. I made sure the PC is pointing to the correct DNS server and tried to flush the DNS as well. Ran virus check on the machine and trace rt (gets to the IP but not using google.com)

    Anyone got any idea's where this is hiding. I also recreated the Hosts file as well.

    Try logging one of the affected users in on another PC, it may be the profile on that PC needs reloading.

    It is working fine on the other PC, good thought hadn't tried that one yet. I just ran the Winsockfix still not loading Google.com

    Try scanning the boot sector/MBR also with aswMBR or similar, it could still be one of those dodgy trojans that enjoy infecting XP machines at the moment.

    We had problems with Google not loading earlier today. Win7 machines on domain and without domain. Probably not related with your problems.
