I have a problem that has lasted for over a month now. I can't get onto certain websites, I just keep getting a "Server not found" message. I really need an answer, I asked on WikiaAnswers over a week ago and didn't get a reply there.

Three websites I can't get on are http://www.rangercentral.com/ http://www.gallifreybase.com/ http://www.thatguywiththeglasses.com/ and some others.

EDIT: I tried clearing cache and cookies and it doesn't work. This problem is also on my new computer, which uses Internet Explorer.

I clicked Diagnose Connection Problems and it says the DNS server isn't responding.

You can try a different DNS server if you suspect problems with the DNS look up of those sites.
