Title: [FIXED] Cannot access any Microsoft®'s Website
Post by: James_Alterlis on September 19, 2009, 10:30:27 pm
Any website contains "microsoft" cannot be access saying;

"Site not found"

Help :bye:

Searched on Google,
it said that I got Worm virus

How to fix please?  :(

The problem is with conficker, its a worm that infects alot of Systems and closes servers.

Here's what you should do.

1. Click Start>Run
2. In the run box, type the following : cmd
3. Click OK
4. Type the following : "cd.." (without the ") . and press enter
5. Repeat the previous step until you get to the root level, or C:> . Note that if your root drive is not C, the letter will be different.
6. At C:> type the following : net stop dnscache (with the spaces)
7. Press Enter. This Disables the domain blocking feature of Conficker and you should be able to reach security websites.


If it didnt work reply ill give you another way.

First, go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc.
Second, open 'hosts' file with Notepad. Note: 'hosts' doesn't have any file format!
Third, check if microsoft.com is listed there. If there is, remove those lines!
Fourth, overwrite 'hosts' file and make sure, if you save it, you put 'Save as Type: All files' and ' File name: hosts'.

If it is too hard to understand, send file to me and i will check it over.
