Vista:
1.) Click on start->All Programs->Accessories
2.) Right click on the command prompt and pick run as administrator.
3.) At the command prompt type "ipconfig /flushdns" no quotes.

Linux:
1.) Open a root terminal or use sudo (in ubuntu or similar systems) with the following command:
- "/etc/rc.d/init.d/nscd restart" (without quotes)

Mac OSX Leopard:
1.) Use the following command in a terminal window:
- "dscacheutil -flushcache" (without quotes)

Mac OSX 10.5.1 and before:
1.) Use the following command in a terminal window:
- "lookupd -flushcache" (without quotes)

This will flush your DNS and will solve a lot of issues with your computer caching the wrong information.

Please can you explain how to flush DNS for we that use window 7.

Thanks.

@dubaijob: follow the instructions for Vista. The security system is similar enough to require the same steps.

Sloppy jargon alert: You don't flush a DNS. You flush a DNS cache.
