>From what you have said, it is a problem with the
DNS server your Tcp/Ip configuration names to be
used by your machine. Others can reach it by name,
as you said.
At a cmd prompt run
ipconfig /all
and compare the DNS server IP to what you have
been told previously to use, or if it has always
been automatic or you are behind such as a DSL router
and it has always been set automatically, then check
with your network services provided for what you
should use for DNS server.
