Page cannot be displayed

[Amanda]

Ok, I'm having trouble here. I can go into any website I
like except Classmates.com. I have no trouble going into
it on the computer at work but at home is another story.
I've tried almost everything from the help desk area and
still cannot get that page to open. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Amanda

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 this file then it may come from a web acceleration
program of some parasites.

Thanks. I'll give that a shot. What is the difference
between HOSTS and OLDHOSTS anyhow? Can you tell I'm not
computer smart?
