DNS problems

I have a computer on a network that up and stopped working on the Internet. I have found that it is a DNS problem, when I run visual route and try to ping a site I am told that it is a bad site name and there is no IP address for it according to my DNS servers. I am reaching my servers and I am working on the network fine besides the Internet problem. Those same DNS serves work fine with my other machines. I tried a new set of DNS servers but the same problem, so I know the problem lies with my machine.
I have scanned for viruses with updated software. Any help would be great.
