IE

[brandon]

I am running SBCGlobal DSL with a netgear router and using
my DNS server forwarding. I can access several web pages
but cant access several also such as MSN,EBAY,and some
others. I can get on microsoft.com and updates.microsoft
adn yahoo. I can ping the web pages without any problems
but cant get to them for no amount of money. This is what
IE gives me as a result

Cannot find server or DNS Error
Internet Explorer

Any help would great....Please email me with answers

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
