I thought the problem was that all web traffic was going to that IP.. not that it was just URL's....I'll go back and re-read it... again. :-?
Although whats the deal with Displaying IP Addresses as HEX in the IPConfig page??

No, his problem is all DNS is resolving to same IP.  Whatever his PC settings, the machine is ignoring and using some old DNS servers.  The rest of his PCs are working fine...

I see. :y

"Hosts" file on that PC maybe changed - but that would not account for the NSLookup entry.

Thats the last thing I can think of.

Do you have any settings in the "alternate configuration" in the properties of TCP/IP of the Local Area Connection?
Also how about the Advanced Settings of TCP/IP of the Local Area Connection.
There is a DNS Tab in there.
That DNS Server has to be set somewhere....

Try this Registry Location....
[HKey_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\]
"NameServer" = REG_SZ:"<IP Address>"

Have a look here as well....

I **presume** the correct DNS Server address.... but PC may need a reboot afterwards.

I found it here... http://techtasks.com/code/viewbookcode/1314
