What can I do if Hosts isn't working under Windows 2000 or XP Pro?

First, you should try using "127.0.0.1 localhost" at the top of your hosts file. If that doesn't work, try converting the entire Hosts file from 0.0.0.0 to the 127.0.0.1 format. Those of you who use Windows 2000/XP Pro and use the very large version of the Hosts file may experience system slowdowns and slow connections.

Most often, this is noticed by those with dialup connections, but may occur with broadband connections as well. Windows 2000/XP Pro also includes a service known as the DNS cache. You can locate it in your services listed as "DNS Client".

To use Hosts or DNSKong you may need to stop and disable this service. Some machines seem to run Hosts without disabling this service. It is safe to turn it off and disable it.

You will likely never notice it is gone. As far as I can tell, no other Windows operating system offers such a service. - Pyrenean If you use DNSKong, please read these instructions.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
