Hey guys, recently I've started seeing this error in the event viewer and it appears quite frequently. Error 1014!

Heres some examples.

DNS Client Events

Name resolution for the name www.mistadave.co.uk timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.

Name resolution for the name teredo.ipv6.microsoft.com timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.

Name resolution for the name cm1.zonealarm.com timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.

Name resolution for the name csi.gstatic.com timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.

I don't know what it means, but I don't recognise any of the urls but I do use Zone Alarm. mistadave means nothing to me and I can't find anything about it using Google.

Anyway, any help is appreciated, thanks.
 
I can understand the DNS resolutions failing as those URLs don't exist. The mistadave.co.uk domain isn't even registered according to a whois lookup.

Can you link the times to activities (reading email for example)?

Are there any other symptoms?

This is one of the reasons why taking too much of an interest in the event logs can only cause unnecessary stress.
 
I haven't noticed anything strange, everything seems to be working fine. mistadave has showed up a few times now most recently while playing Quake Live.

I think it might have only started showing up after switching to Firefox and using AdBlock and NoScript but I'm not sure.
