When I enter the address of a certain web site, the page
does not load. I get this error message;
"Bad request
The serve could not process your request due to a syntax
error"
If I go to some type of search engine and search for the
web site and try to link to it that way, it doesn't work
either.
Has anyone ever had this problem?

Click to expand...

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

Hi Frank

Thanks for your help but I rename it to OLDHOSTS but
didn't work. I'm still unable to open the page.
