safest way to run a pc online is to run inside VMware,
Partition your drive into 4,
1- windows
2- saved local data/trusted data
3- email
4- saved internet files
Or learn to use Linux and uses vmware to run windows applications.
You can try the following as its not always something in your root system sometimes its just a cache issue
ipconfig /flushdns in a command prompt to fix it.
You can also do the following
To edit your local DNS lookup file, explore this folder:
C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc
the file name is hosts
search for anything you feel is not needed
If you've never edited your HOSTS file before, this is what it should look like:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost
