When using IE6, Netscape or Opera to login to my hotmail account...I keep
getting an error message like:

F000000001&a=8fabaa3b8c27c628d0182df454fae156&fti=yes HMServer: H:
LC1-LFD158.law5.internal.hotmail.com V: WIN2K 09.06.00.0055 i D: Oct 8 2002
09:24:46 Age: 2 Transfer-Encoding: chunked Via: HTTP/1.1 ntl_site
(Traffic-Server/5.2.0-R [c s f ]) 0

Can anyone decipher the above and let me know what the problem
is.................

TIA

Search your computer for a hidden system called HOSTS. Open HOSTS using
Notepad and remove any reference to the problem site/s.

sf,
 
Of course it wasn't.
 
Sandy (the only "REAL" mvp) couldn't care less about your issue.
She didn't bother to read your original post in its' entirety or she would have (should have) known that the hosts file never was the issue to begin with.
 
What she did know was that posting one of her many "canned" responses would add to her post count.
 
Much like the msn "bots" on the "help" (now there's a stretch), Sandy is programmed to self serve.....not assist.
