Is The Store having issues?
On a side note - updated SDC yesterday...today it can't log in, WC Browser can. And SDC say my OD subcription expires $RETCODE=1$....This mean I get a discount once I get through?

Fairyy,
You can think of it as clearing the cache in the network (internet) connection, to clear any incorrect (or outdated) information.
A DNS server basically converts (or connect) the site name you type in your address field to the numbered IP address of the site, so that your browser can download the correct page for viewing.
I hope that sheds some light on it, I am no expert by any means in networking.

or maybe they did set it per Troll?

Still timed out at the store, still weird expiration for OD subscript. Even restored SDC back to see if that would help.

I once accedently flushed the dns of a University Computer. It somehow released all IPs and got off from the domain.
I still havn't managed to get it back on.

Assuming a DHCP configuration, you should be able to go into Local Area Connections > right-click adapter icon > Properties > select Intenet protocols TCP/IP, and double-click to invoke Properties dialog > make sure Obtain IP address automatically, and Obtain DNS server address automatically is selected > reboot computer.
If all above is selected, you also run the command: ipconfig /renew (note - for a specific adapter only, you would run ipconfig /renew [adaptername]).
If the computer is on static IP, you will need to find out what the address is.
