NOTE: This fix is no longer valid!

i will explain this for those not so computer literate..

For ALL

1. Open My computer
2. Open C:
3. Open Windows Folder
4. Open system32 Folder
5. Open drivers Folder
6. Open etc Folder
7. Double click file "hosts" and open it with notepad

now you have in notepad something similar to this (in your own language):
Code:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# Dette er HOSTS-eksempelfilen, der bruges af Microsoft TCP/IP til Windows.
#
# Denne fil indeholder IP-adressetilknytninger til v?rtsnavne. Du b?r ikke
# angive flere end en post pr. linje. IP-adressen skal placeres i den f?rste
# kolonne efterfulgt af det tilsvarende v?rtsnavn.
# IP-adressen og v?rtsnavnet kan adskilles af mindst ?t mellemrum.
#
# Kommentarer (som disse) kan inds?ttes p? individuelle linjer eller efter-
# f?lge computernavn. Kommentarer skal anf?res med nummertegn '#'.
#
# Eksempel:
#
#      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # kildeserver
#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x-klientv?rt

127.0.0.1       localhost



Below
Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost


Add:
Code:
159.153.197.91 compassion.owo.com
159.153.156.150 drachenfels.owo.com
159.153.196.41 login.owo.com


For WinXP/Win2K

save and close

Done!



For Vista/Win7


1. Save in documents folder.
2. uncheck "Hide extention for known file types" (last part of filename) in folder option in control panel its a suboption of "Apperance and personalization"
3. find the hosts.txt file in documents folder.
4. remove ".txt" from file name so its only named "hosts" without an extention.
5. copy it to previously stated folder and overwrite it.

Done!


this way it bypass the dns servers and tell the computer that if internet requires the adress go to ip in front :)

it helps for some issues but not all, unfortunetly...
