This means that you have to wait for them to update their cache before your DNS changes will be reflected.
A simple recommendation is to use Google DNS. It is free and public and works with all ISPs. We've noticed an increased propation time by using Google DNS, changes seem to be almost instant.
You should also flush your DNS. Please read this KB Article about flusing DNS.
