Can't browse web pages in Windows 8.1

Many users can ping a web site but can't browse web pages after upgrading to Windows 8.1. Here are two possible reason to solve this issue.
1: DNS problem:
If you can't browse web page through web link(www.google.com) but can browse  through IP address (74.125.226.18), it should be a DNS issue.
Solution:
In Control Panel, open Properties page of Network Adapter, set the DNS as static DNS and set it as 8.8.8.8(Google Public DNS).

2: TCP stack corruption
If you can't browse web page through web link(www.google.com) but can't browse  through IP address (74.125.226.18), it should be a TCP issue.
Solution:
(1) Right click cmd and choose Run as Adminitrator
(2) Run "netsh int ip reset"
(3) Run "netsh winsock reset"
