I have a LAN Setup, the internet is accessed to a Lanmodem.
I have 20 users with Internet Access.

The laptop was working fine, until this morning, I can connect to the LAN but not to the Internet. I checked all the settings, everything is correct, nothing changed.
Everytime I try to get online I receive a DNS Error message
Any ideas where else I can look.
Everone else on the network can connect to the internet.
Thanks

See if you can ping a public IP address, or browse to a web-site via IP address. This will help verify it's a DNS issue.

If you're running win 98, look at the documents folder on the start menu. We have had this recently where the Marco virus caused this. If you see Marco!.xxx you've got it. Just another thing to check. Good Luck.
