Hi,
It would be easier to follow this thread if you had replied to my message in
the original thread, but...
To enable viewing of Hidden files:
Start Button> Settings> Control Panel> Folder Options.
Click on the View tab and select "View hidden files abd folders"

To rename your HOSTS file...
Double-click My Computer
Double-click Local Disk (C)
Double-click Windows
Double-click System 32
Double-click Drivers
Double-click etc
Right-click HOSTS and choose Rename
Rename HOSTS to HOSTS.OLD
Close that window

Revisit the web pages which weren't displaying everything. Is all content
now being displayed?

Forgive me with a different problem/issue.... not sure if this even the right
place to ask....

Using OE 6 and the system asked if I wanted to compact messages.... ooops, I
said yes, and now two important folders are empty.... How can I
retrieve/restore those many important e-mails?

Click to expand...

Is there any chance you turned off the computer before it was done?
Are there any DBT files in the OE store folder (the one with the DBX files)?
Note that these are hidden files and you will have to set Windows Explorer
to show hidden files and folders.
