First providing the entire text of the message in a comment here would provide useful information to resolve the error.
Second a short discussion of DNS. DNS from your perspectiveis generally several servers assigned by your ISP to provide the data to convert names such as www.FixYa.com to numeric IP addresses to send messages. Generally in a home network these DNS addresses get configured into the adapter automatically from the router using DHCP or manually by the user.
If your web browser can access sites by name such as www.fixya.com despite the DNS message you indicated then your DNS servers are probably properly configured and there is another DNS issue.
If you wish to check further
click on start than all programs then accessories then command prompt
in the window that opens enter the following command
ipconfig /all
There may be multiple adapters shown but one should have all of the following as non 0.0.0.0 addresses
IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and one or more DNS addresses. The DNS addresses present should normally match those provided by your ISP.
IF you have any questions, can supply the full error message or believe any of the above is an issue please add a comment to this problem and I will provide any additional input I can based on your observations.
