Comment (by Gravitas):
I think I may have some clue as to what's going on. It was my habit to use
Google's DNS which is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. This issue has been occurring
continuously using these DNS settings.
I switched broadband company a few weeks ago, and as usual I configured
everything to use Google's DNS. The problem continued. I then tried using
the www.opendns.com settings which are 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220,
and all of these messages disappeared, and everything is running rock
solid now.
I wonder why using Google's DNS settings would result in this behaviour?
