Hi guys,
This message to all the people who have a problem with
Search engines such as "MSN search engine, Yahoo search
engine, Google and more.
Here is what I do to fix this problem:
In Windows, open the Notepad program. You can do this by
going to the Start menu in the lower left of your screen,
selecting "Programs," then "Accessories,"
then "Notepad."
In the Notepad menu, click on "File," then "Open." You
will see a new window asking which file to open. You may
need to change "Files of type" to "All Files" instead
of "Text Documents". The actual file to open is listed
below:
If your computer is running Windows XP, Window NT, or
Windows 2000, the file is located in the folder found by
following this path:
My Computer >Local Disk(C) >Windows >System32
If your computer is running Windows 98, Second Edition or
Windows ME, the file is located in the folder found by
following this path:
My Computer >Local Disk(C) >Windows >hosts
Once you have opened this file, remove entirely any line
of text that contains "google.com", "www.google.com" or
other Google domains (such as "google.co.uk"). To remove
the text, highlight it by dragging your pointer across
the
line while holding down the mouse button. Once the text
is
highlighted, hit the Backspace or Delete button, then
save the file by going to the File menu and
clicking "Save." You can now exit Notepad.
