I found the answer on Microsoft’s site: To resolve this problem, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.
2. In the list of services, click DNS Client.
3. Make sure that the Status column displays Started and that the Startup Type column displays Automatic.
4. If the service is not set to Started or if the startup type for the DNS Client service is not set to Automatic, follow these steps:
1. Right-click DNS Client, and then click Properties.
2. In the DNS Client Properties dialog box, click the General tab, and then click Automatic in the Startup type list.
3. Click Start, click Apply, and then click OK.

I dont think i ever accessed some of them, like google.co.nz. Isnt that new zealand? I know i am in the usa. Is there any other way to delete them?

No, does not delete your browsing history. To learn more about the IPConfig command, click [ HERE ] . In my case, it refreshed my DNS cache and speeded up page loads.
