search site problemo

[glowbelly]

just a heads up: i just had to delete some hosts file on my computer that was put there by some bad program thing so i could reach google and other search engines. if you're having a problem reaching the search engines, or getting results from searches, do a search on your computer for hosts files and delete the one that has all the search engine names in it.

then you have to do something with a dns command prompt thing.

god i suck at talking tech.

chimp? do you know what i'm saying? can you explain this better for people?

thanks.

Yeah, I've heard about this. Generally, your hosts file is a GOOD thing, because you can put the addresses of really gay websites in it (like ad sites) and your computer will redirect itself to itself to look for the information.
