I just got finished cleaning a virus off of my computer. In the process of doing so, they had me download a new file into my host file (or whatever you call it). Ever since then I can’t log onto a couple of my favorite websites. The only reason I’m mentioning the Host thing is I saw in it referred to in a message similar to mine. I contacted my technical support by phone. Their suggestion was to download Firefox, uninstall IE and reinstall IE. When I downloaded Firefox, the same web pages would not load. Now I know there is more of a problem. I guess I will try this site too…nothing to loose.
