Unable to seejoin any server - R.Fiets - 2015-03-21 15:35

1st of all, if I did post on wrong area, please replace it to right one.

I have read now many threads about this problem I have, but might missed right solution. 1st of all, I am not that great in all this IT-stuff, so if there will be solutions given, may I ask to explain in usual-computer-user-style.
A as have seen, bumping old threads might give less reaction so that why new one.

Since today I cannot find and servers in master list. If I use "join specific server" - it stops loading from "waiting OK" or something, host cant receive UDP packet.
So I tried some test's.

Firewalls, everything are off. Btw, until yesterday, I had no problem with it.
NB! using mobile internet and haven't change anything in meanwhile.

Checked my C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
No lines about lfs, however there are 2 fails called hosts. 1st one opened:
# Copyright © 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost

2nd one is with lfslazy icon and is one ICS-fail.
If this thing is still able to be fixed, glad to hear about it.
Greetings and thnx

I posted it into lfs forums, but as I haven't get any reactions yet, though, I give a try also here, as this might be faster due good communication around here.
What I wanted to add is that, before all this, I did get massive alerts from lfslazy that there was something wrong with hosts, so I disabled it.
And throw lazy I get list of servers, but not able to join.

If there are some ideas, you are very welcome to help me, ppl who has actually no idea, please stay out - no attention is here given.

Very thanks,
R

For those who want to know, I just erased his DNS cache on a prompt command as he managed to ping the IP address and not the domain and it looks like it has solved the problem.
