NT4 workstation Internet configuration

I am running  NT workstation, and am having problems with web access..
The DUN connection works fine for mail and news, and for some web
sites, including Demon and my business site, which is hosted by Demon.
I think what is happening is that the only sites I can access are
hosted by Demon. Any outside sites fail to connect,  with a message
saying there is a DNS error. 

I can ping Demon, but no-one else.

The guidelines at nt-demon.txt don't help. 

What do I do now?

Sounds like you have the DNS server addresses wrong. They should be
158.152.1.43 and 158.152.1.58
