Something happened over night and now I can't access the
Internet with IE. When I enter a URL, it gets looped back
to my computer (IP 127.0.0.1). It starts with "opening
with http://www.excite.com" (my home page) and then
switches to 127.0.0.1. It doesn't matter what I do, I can't
go anywhere. I'm able to use Netscape to do my work for now.

Any suggestions?
