It was a bad host file, made one from scratch fixed the problem. Strange, I have used that same host file many a time with no problem, it just would not work this time, but thanks!<br />

Yea - there's not much you can do to have one 'not work' unless it's configured improperly or something.<br />
Glad you got it working though.<br />
Thanx.

Hi guys,<br />
<br />
My problem is that windows XP is not reading the Hosts file not matter what I put in it. I have even made a new hosts file with no luck. Any ideas? Thanks!!<br />

Windows XP not reading Hosts file.

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
