    Hello!

    I'm working on a friend's computer. It didn't want to load any webpages in Internet Explorer.

    With some help here, I figured out it was a DNS error. I had to put some IP addresses in the primary and secondary IP address field for the TCP/IP settings.

    Now it is working, most of the time. Occassionally I'm getting a link that doesn't want to work. So, I'm trying to figure that one out now.

    What settings should be in all those fields?

    A website I went to said to put these IP addresses in, so I did, and now it is working, like I said, most of the time.

    This is the numbers the website said to put in...
    Primary DNS: 134.50.254.5
    Secondary DNS: 134.50.57.57

    You'll have to get in touch with your friends ISP and ask what DNS servers to use.
