Reliance DNS Error

[Hok]

Hi friends,
This problem has been troubling me for quite sometime now. I could not open some websites.These websites include myspace(the webpage opens but the videos just wouldn't load),a local newspaper's site,etc.I get a "DNS Error" page.
Also, I could not update AVG antivirus(both version 7.5 and 8.0).
I would like to know if anyone using Reliance is facing the same problem as I am facing and also any possible solution for this problem is welcome.

Thanks.But PageFix is not able to fix my problem.Maybe someone with BSNL connection
can share DNS server of BSNL.

This problem is really giving me headache.I've tried flushing my DNS cache,Page Fix, Open DNS but none of them seems to be working.You know the strange thing is that these blocked websites can be browse or open in my mobile(I am using mobile as modem to connect to internet).
Anyway, I would like to know if other users who are using Airtel,BSNL, etc can open this website http://www.gosms.in/.
Whoever solves this problem is a genius.

I'm able to open that site using my default Airtel DNS servers!! What settings are you using for the connection?

I think his routing got some errors.I have 0% knowledge with window$ and routing.

try the o/p of "route" command though. also see the o/p with "ipconfig /ALL" cmd.

No special settings really.If I connect using bluetooth I just need to dial on the Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking Service button and I automatically get connected to the internet.

Well I type the ipconfig /ALL and this is what I get.

It doesn't make much sense to me but whoever can understand this, please tell me if there is/is no problem with the above settings or connections.

I HAVE A FAVOUR TO ASK.
CAN SOMEONE(WITH BSNL, AIRTEL OR OTHER CONNECTIONS,ETC) PLEASE CHECK IF MY ISP's DNS SERVERS ARE WORKING OR NOT.
YOU CAN DO SO BY CLICKING
CONTROL PANEL-NETWORK CONNECTIONS-RIGHT CLICK ON THE CONNECTION YOU ARE USING AT PRESENT-CLICK PROPERTIES-CLICK NETWORKING TAB-UNDER INTERNET PROTOCOL(TCP/IP),CLICK PROPERTIES-THEN CHECK THE BOX 'USE THE FOLLOWING DNS SERVER ADDRESSES" AND TYPE THE FOLLOWING NUMBEERS IN THE TWO BOXES BELOW.
202.138.96.2
202.138.97.193
NEXT CLICK OK, CLICK OK AGAIN.
DISCONNECT INTERNET AND CONNECT AGAIN TO SET THE ABOVE SETTINGS INTO EFFECT.
THEN TRY BROWSING TO THE FOLLOWING SITES
http://www.gosms.in/.
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
If you can browse to these sites then nothing is wrong with my ISP's DNS servers
