WinXp Pro
In TCP/IP Properties, I set
IP and DNS to 'Automatic'
I can browse for 8 seconds then DNS changes
from Auto to 81.89.141.74, 200.193.231.121.Thus browser
can't resolve.
These were the old DNS servers from Freeserve.com
I have tried specifying the NEW freeserve DNS values
but my machine keeps changing them BACK after 8 seconds

Something is forcing the DNS to these values,But what?
I have tried:
NETSH IP RESET
IPCONFIG /Release
IPCONFIG /RENEW
Nothing works....Do I have to FORMAT C:!!! Sob!
