Second causes due to which we need to flush the DNS are the positive entries. When you enter the positive entry and the website become finally open and the working of the site is ok then some time the personal computer stuck and gives the DNS error, then flushing is recommended.
when the user use the internet address for the access to website, then this address stored in the in the system for a day and when the time moves up from 24c hours and the IP address changes before the time then the DNS give out the error page and held whole working and the users are not able to stay connected with the internet.
