NortonDNS Configuration 1.0.2 - Unable to query the Norton DNS servers. DNS queries may be hijacked

I have just upgraded to version 1.0.2 from beta. Since doing this I keep getting the following log enteries that I never received before :-

 

 

Unable to query the A record on Norton DNS server 198.153.194.1. This operation returned because the timeout period expired. 
Unable to query the Norton DNS servers.  There may be a connection problem or DNS queries may be hijacked

Any ideas?

Were you using this computer at a wifi hotspot such as Startbucks, McDonald?

Collin,

 

Could you try running a tracert and nslookup on both Norton DNS servers?
