Please Help with internet connection...

Unfortunetly this did not work.  I went in and
commented out the search localdomain.  Then put in the
dns of my ISP, earthlink.  I ran it again, with no
luck, then looked at the file again.  This  time it
looked like this:

# search localdomain 	#entry disabled by kppp
search localdomain 

# nameserver 209.244.0.3	#kppp temp entry
# nameserver 209.244.0.3 # ppp temp entry
# nameserver 209.244.0.4	#kppp temp entry
# nameserver 209.244.0.4 # ppp temp entry
nameserver 207.217.77.82
nameserver 207.217.120.83
nameserver 209.244.0.3

# domain earthlink.net 		#kppp temp entry

# ppp temp entry

  I have no idea where the 209.244.0.3 came from, but
the two starting with 207. are the dns of earthlink. 
I can not do a nslookup because the only computer I
have access to that command is the one I am having a
problem with.

  
   Any ideas of what else to try?
