Did your 14 day trial period expire on Simple DNS? After that, it needs to be registered. This is fortunately not difficult to do ;-)

Double check all settings because it should work. You might as well mention what kind of router you have too. Here's an example of what 99% of all home configurations should look like:
PC TCP/IP config (assuming your router subnet is 192.168.1.x like most):
IP Address: 192.168.1.10 (*)
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 192.168.1.1 (**)
Secondary DNS: blank
(*) Most routers start assigning addresses at 192.168.1.100. So pick an IP that is outside that range. 10 through 99 are as good as any to use.
(**) Your router gets an IP automatically from your ISP, which includes DNS addresses. So you just point your PC to the router and DNS queries are properly forwarded.
PS3 setup (when Simple DNS Plus is running on PC)
Choose manual setup
IP: 192.168.1.11
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway/Router: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 192.168.1.10
Proxy: NO
2ND DNS: blank
