Flush that DNS down the Toilet!

Sometimes I find Apple fanboys and girls annoying. But then again, I appreciate, maybe, where they are coming from. Just having an illusion that a piece of expensive kit will work out of the box is unbelievably great. Of course it doesn't pan out that way, just look at Apple Support on their homepage and you'll see the problems that they have with DNS.

On the PC, it's no better. In fact, apparently Windows stores all those juicy information about the websites you visit so that you can access them faster the next time you click on them. But, being innocent COMPUTERS! They will get corrupted from time to time and slow down the internet!

For goodness sake, I wish I didn't know about this, so I can just blame it all on bandwidth.

* To solve this problem type ipconfig /flushdns at the command prompt.
