i don't think it is dns related problems because the other computers on the network can still use the same dns server and rebooting fixes the problem. one other thing i should add is that if i have already connect to something like aim i can continue using it or anything else that i already have established a connection to. i have tried what someone else suggested and let tcpdump run for a few minutes and it seems to clear up the problem.
