DNS issue with browsing?
I have a user who's having issues browsing the internet. She can get to some websites but not others. Seems mostly like the search engine sites do not work for her. Google doe3sn't come up, yahoo comes up but you can use the search, etc.
Everything on the network (apps) seems to run correctly.
Doesn't look like a virus, i flushed dns, and also manually added some public dns servers to the TCPIP settings.
Any other ideas on things I can try?

Couldn't come to a resolution even with all these ideas. Finally just swapped the machine out with another and I'll wipe it out.

Didn't check the host file, but I did flush the dns already and all other machines in the office can get to all the websites so it's a localized problem with just this machine.
I also checked the proxy settings and there's none setup and the machine is setup to automatically detect settings.
I also upgraded IE from 7 to 8 and tried Firefox and the problem remained. I thought about resetting the TCPIP stack but since she has connectivity to some sites and all the network resources I didn't think that would be needed.
