Cannot find server or DNS error

[mveng]

IE6 works fine, but in the last week is unable to access
two sites - citibank and harrisdirect. An alternate
browswer (opera) developed the exact same problem. Both
sites are available from different computers. No other
problems observed. Tried to delete history, cookies,
cache, to no avail. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks.

It may be a HOSTS file problem.
Look also for a file named HOSTS (no extension, could be hidden) rename it
OLDHOSTS.

If you did not create the file, then you may parasites, or you are using a
web accelerator program that would be causing this problem.
