Vista keeps dropping DNS

Hello

i'm having some issues with Vista. Basically, when I start up my computer
the internet connection fails - when I go and set up a specific DNS on the
IPv4 properties, it all starts working properly, but when I log off these
settings are lost. This is not so bad for me, but my wife resents having to
attempt to set this up every time she wants to use the internet.

Has anyone come across this, or have any suggestions as to how I can make
the DNS stick?

Regards
Mark
