Hello everyone,
I own a domain name www.mysite.com (example)
most of the time is ok but sometimes my site dont work and if i do
ping www.mysite.com I see that is directing to a local LAN ip like 192.108.2.40 or something like that.
at the same moment if I do it in other PC everything is OK
so I know the problem is my PC
what can it be? virus, hack?
thanks a lot

Dear,
try this command
CMD> tracert www.yoursiteName.com
also you can change your DNS in Network configurations to
207.69.188.186
207.69.188.187
hope this help you
