Also check your hosts file, as follows:

1. If you have XP, in XP's Search preferences, set the files and folders

handling to Advanced, and then check the box that will make Search look

in hidden files/folders. For older os's, just use "Find".

2. Now enter the search term "hosts" without the quotes.

3. You will get several hosts and lmhosts files. Double-click each one

to open it. When you do this, you'll get a Windows dialog box saying

that Windows cannot open this file, do you want to use the web or

select from a list to find the proper program. Choose "select from a

list" and highlight Notepad. Make sure the box to always use this

program to open this type of file is not checked.

4. Now carefully examine the file. Lines that begin with a # are

comments and don't count. Leave them alone. Unless you know you use a

proxy server to get to the

Internet or you added entries yourself, the only uncommented entry that

should be there is:



127.0.0.1   localhost



If you see any other entries, delete them and Save the file. Make sure

you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the window if there is a

scrollbar. Do this for each file you found.
