After installing Norton Systemworks 2006, we are no longer able to access our
church's website or email service. I have since uninstalled NAV and still can
not access it. I can get to any other address I type in so it has to be IE on
our computer network at the church. Other's can get to our site from other
computers. Is there something in the Windows Firewall or IE that would block
a specific address?

Check for a file named HOSTS with no extension (not Hosts.sam). It may be a
hidden file. Open it with Notepad and remove any line referencing the site.
Or, rename HOSTS to OLDHOSTS

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