Glad it worked

The ipconfig /flushdns command will only run again, if you tell it too ... the Run thing in Windows "remembers" like the last 10 commands much like one's browser history remembers where one has visited in the past.

You normally should not flush dns, since it normally happens automatically everytime you start your computer. Excessively flushing dns can actually make things run slower; lead to sporadic server not found messages...

The flush dns thing is really intended only for fixing problems, such as you experienced, the other day, in which your web browser had cached an old IP address for a website, etc that had moved.

DFG is spot-on that something like the anonymizer or similar service like megaproxy is worth considering, if you're seeking additional privacy.

Take care
