DNS Errors are not usually flash related. It's possible your ISP has the name cached incorrectly in their nameservers which will fix itself over time. Anyone know how to force a nameserver to reread the DNS from the client?

What do you have set as your DNS server? It sounds to me like whatever you're using has a glitch accessing those sites. Some that have worked for me in the past are:
4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2

Try replacing your DNS server entries with those and see if you're still getting the problem.

Where would I set my DNS servers? It doesn't seem to be in "internet options".

Well, the exceedingly lovely Addle walked me through several attempts to solve my problem, but nothing worked.

So here's a request:

Could someone please please please mirror those three sites? Please?

Well, it seems that the powers that be have enabled me to view all the sites properly!

Weird. I hope it lasts!
