Paradise no go via alpha name which *should* mean Clear generally.
IHUG DNS's didn't fix it.
Woosh down too.

BUT using ping on eg www.google.com etc
gave a normal echo AND plugging the IP address into the browser gace 
Google etc.

SO seems like a DNS server error affecting at least 3 NZ ISps but NOT 
the DNS used for ping.

Anyone know how Windows resolves IP addresses for Ping?
And is it / why is it not using the DNSs in the PCs Internet 
configuration?
Or. is it, and there's something more complex happening?
