I cannot go to a website I usually go to.

I get "page not found"..everyone else can access it.

I deleted the cookies, updated Java client, restored to the last time I was
able to access and still cannot get on. I can't get their help because
everything is based on their address and I cannot access.

Can someone tell me what else I may do?

Thank you.
 
I opened all of the files called "HOST" but did not see the website in
question. Someone told me to unplug the router and cable modem..power off
entirely for 1 minute..and then plug in the router, next the cable modem. It
actually worked..I was ready to reformat my hard drive.

Thank you for your help in this matter. :)
 
I have the same problem as "HT" whose note I'm posting
under. I went to find files, typed in Hosts, and found
this enourmous file full of spyware and apparent
pornographic references ( my three boys, no doubt!) Do
you want me just to delete this HOSTS file? The file was
opened with notepad and is cut and just a portion of it
(enourmous) is pasted below:

I had the same problem as this guy, I found that HOSTS
file and deleted 2,000 seemingly spyware files in it,
renamed it OLDHOSTS, but it didn't help at all. I'm
looking for a free utility that will examine my .dll files
and see if some are damaged or missing--got any ideas
where I can find one? I'm running Windows98SE. For the
record, I had a bad spyware problem months ago and used
Adaware to remove the stuff, I heard that in some cases it
can damage your .dll files. Also, my puter will only
defrag in safe mode, and I had a warning something was
wrong with my OS files. Any ideas?
