Odd discrimination with respect to web sites

[Rod McKinnon]

My explorer 6.0 will acess 99% of the world's web sites.
There are a few, however , that it will not go to.

It times out. Citbank in new York, The City of Scottsdale,
Service Arizona for example. No one can answer this
limited phenomenon. Any ideas?

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
