Jochen and LTBH, I substituted the following DNServers after pinging each to make sure they respond fast... ns1.berkeley.edu - 128.32.136.9 (Berkeley, CA, USA) ns1.granitecanyon.com - 205.166.226.38 then executed ipconfig /flushdns and checked for the presence of the 2 new DNS entries via ipconfig /all the two servers work [I switched the order to try both] ...except when I try to open story.news.yahoo.com or any other link that starts with story.news.yahoo.com Now I think it is a Yahoo problem. [but other members here say they can open the Yahoo news links] Comcast DNS and the 2 DNS listed above all reject the story.news.yahoo.com link, i.e. they time out. I sent my 3rd email to Yahoo, repeating all the info they requested, which I had already sent before. Thank you for trying to help. The failures occur whether I use IE or FF. BTW, all security software runs came up with zilch. There is no entry in the hosts file. Gottfried
