You guys are pitiful. DNS client

Only deals with cacheing. This below is from XP's description of the DNS client. This is why bloggers suck as journalists. You are a joke and never do your homework.

The DNS Client service (dnscache) caches Domain Name System (DNS) names and registers the full computer name for this computer. If the service is stopped, DNS names will continue to be resolved. However, the results of DNS name queries will not be cached and the computer's name will not be registered. If the service is disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start.
