Hello-
Could you please go to:
<http://www.mycomputersproblem.bravehost.com>
My question is, are those icons supposed to look like that??

Thanks,
Debbie

Thanks
One more question, but, um, here's what happened this morning...
The nohosts one used to be named hosts (no caps). And the HOSTS one used to
be OLDHOSTS. So, for me to be able to rename OLDHOSTS to HOSTS, I had to
change the name of hosts to nohosts. My question is, which one is the right
HOSTS file? Is it OK if I delete those two, and replace it for the one at
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm ??
Thanks again!

Debbie
