    Before the supreme beings at MSN tell you...we might as well first get it out of the way.

    Clear all temp files (including the Windows\Temp folder), temporary internet files, downloaded program files, and cookies.

    DNS errors usually indicate a problem either the browser, or her ISP is having locating the server being requested.
