awsome! thanks.... So I'm not a wiz at Regedits, so someone does not mind checking that I did this right.... (so I can fix it so others can use it.) Refrence: http://vlaurie.com/computers2/Articles/dnscache.htm Inside Reg File: -------------------Cut Here----------------------------------- Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DNSCache\Parameters] "NegativeCacheTime"=dword:00000000 "QueryIpMatching"=dword:00000001 -------------------End Here----------------------------------- "NegativeCacheTime"=dword:00000000 Tells windows NOT to store BAD DNS entries "QueryIpMatching"=dword:00000001 Tells windows not to store entries that user didn't request (security hole)

I read somewhere about IE caching the DNS and IPs when you type in an address, and if you have some kind of error, IE remembers the error when you try to reload the webpage. there was a post with the .reg that you could disable it so that every time you go to a web page it gets the DNS fresh. I've looked all over but I don't know what seach terms to use cause I don't know what that cache is called. If anyone knows how to disable this cache or the link to the answer please post. TIA
