It appears that the DNS fix is broken. I can no longer see the site, even with the Google public DNS.
If you are hear because you want to unblock Cuevana, the easiest way is to use Google’s public DNS. Instructions HERE.
I just tried the google dns and it works.
What I did:
I have XP so I right clicked My Network Places and clicked properties.
I then right clicked my Local Area Connection and clicked properties.
I then clicked Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and then clicked properties.
I clicked the radio button to use the following DNS server address.
I typed in 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and clicked OK.
To refresh it I went back and right clicked my Local Area Connection and did a repair.
Worked like a charm.
I got a spike last night from people hitting this site. I was getting a huge amount of traffic from Google because a site name Cuevana started showing 403 errors. For some reason I came up on the searches. I even got questions as to how to bring Cuevana back.
Well, Cuevana is a pirate site for Videos from Argentina. It is like Hulu.com, except in Spanish and, as I understand it, it does not pay for the content it streams.
I don’t understand why Google listed me in Cuevana searches. I have discussed 403 errors, but I had never heard of Cuevana before.
I am wondering if Cuevana is hosted on 1and1.com and their 403 errors were related to mine.
I just tried to search for a David Mamet film on Cuevana and got the 403. I’ve been referring to this site for a half year now. I guess the crack down is under way.
You wrote:

I could not find the radio button after I clicked Internet Protocol
Could you please be more clear
After you click the “use the following DNS Server address”, right underneath that is the place to put 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.8.4 Then click OK.

what about mac?
thanks!
Follow the link above to the google site. There are instructions for the Mac.
are you sure that for a mac it works the same way? i tried putting in all numbers and it didnt work….
When I enter the addresses, my computer also wants a subnet mask and default gateway in addition to just the addresses. I’m using Windows Vista. What do I enter?
Thanks!
Leave that stuff alone. Just change the part about the dns
When yo do it in a macbook it doesnt work…. Is there anything else we should do after following the steps on the google dns page?
