538124 2007-04-04 00:12:00 Hmm that link I gave to the host file in the other forum, and the link Safari gave again, may have been the prob.

I killed it, and went back to the normal hosts file, and its faster than that was.

Must be something in it, that does slow u down.

And Windowsupdate wouldnt work with it either. Till I went back to the original hosts file.

538125 2007-04-04 01:26:00 The hosts file won't be responsible for the DNS issues though. It seems to be unresolvable even when bypassing hosts. Perhaps the registration has lapsed? Erayd (23)
538126 2007-04-04 02:01:00 It's a DNS problem. pressf1.co.nz doesn't seem to exist any more. ;)

Under the New Zealand PC WORLD logo at the top there is a bar of links. On PressF1 pages, the "PRESSF1 FORUM" link is to pressf1.pcworld.co.nz , and links you back to PressF1. On the PC World page, that link is to pressf1.co.nz . That doesn't work.
