David Hallam Check your hosts file in windows-system32-drivers-etc if my memory does not fail me. It should have only on entry. Beware that some uglies first add a number of empty lines, so that you will not see them when you open the file. after localhost should be no extra lines!! If you are not sure about wat should be in it,ask your provider. You might keep a copy of the correct hosts file around somewhere. Also save a copy before you start to remove trash. the file looks like:

# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp. # # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP-IP for Windows. # # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol. # # For example: # # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
