Anybody know if it's a problem my end or their end?VictorThe requested URL could not be retrievedWhile trying to retrieve the URL: http://portal.fsgenesis.net/modules.php? The following error was encountered: Unable to determine IP address from host name for portal.fsgenesis.net The dnsserver returned: Server Failure: The name server was unable to process this query. This means that: The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL. Check if the address is correct.

Hi Victor,This is probably something you cant fix by yourself, I'm afraid - whats happened by the sounds of it is your ISP's "address book" that resolves www.website.com to the IP address - 123.456.789.0 for example, and it can't find the entry. You may be able to workaround it manually by adding the address into LMHOSTS (XP/NT/2K) - for advice on this look here - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...8&Product=winxp - otherwise, you may want to try using another DNS entry - try a google search for DNS IP addresses, and you may be able to find them. Course, it could also be a "glitch"!!!All the best, Leonr EGLL
