With Windows XP: Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Network Connections -> right click your network connection -> Properties -> select Internet Protocol -> Properties On the bottom of the "General tab you should see options for "Obtain DNS addresses automagically" and "Use the following DNS". Click the "Use the following" option and enter those addresses you found at DNSresolvers. If you connect through a router of some sort, you should also be able to change the DNS addresses in the router. See your instruction manual.
