I am running XP sp2 and am having a problem acessing a paticular web site.
Have been able in the past to load this site but after updating to SP2 I can
not. Nothing is wrong with site because I can access it through a different
computer. It is the only site that I have found that I can not load. I get an
eror message saying "Page can not be displayed."
Thanks,
Jim

Check C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc for a file named HOSTS with no
extension. (Not Hosts.sam)
Make sure Windows is set to show hidden files and folders and is NOT set to
hide extensions for known file types.
If HOSTS exists, rename it to HOSTS.OLD
Reboot an try again.

Or, In a Cmd window, enter
ipconfig /flushdns
then clear your TIF also, and re-boot.

The web site uses META Refresh to do a redirect.
Your security settings may prevent this.
Either set your security settings to Default
or use View Source and extract the URL= parameter from

<example>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="1; URL=/eclub/main_home.jsp?mt=a">
</example>

In this particular case the URL= parameter is a relative reference
to the page you are loading so you would append it to the current
contents of the Address bar (minus one of the slashes):
