hello

I have a problem with accessing most of my favorite sites.
I now get HTTP 404 - File not found for most of my
favorite sites, but I can still access the internet &
browse other sites no problem.
One day they were working fine, the next - nothing.
I know it's my machine, as I can access these sites from
other PC's.
I've tried the basic stuff like clearing out my cookies,
history & tempory internet files.

Any Ideas?

Rodney

Some parasites will play havoc with your Favorites. Check it out.

This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware, parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
