  • weird internet

    my computer is not logged onto the internet ,i cannot log on to aim or visit any site other than this one. i think it is because i followed the instructions on the main page on how to make the message boards work, by adding the camarov6.com Ip adress into the host file of system32 folder. weird, huh?

    also i tryed to go to the main page now and it doesnt work! :rolleyes:

      Sounds like you messed something up. Try removing what you added to the hosts file.

      I've got 5700 entries in my hosts file with no problem.

              they should be different, as the admins have said several times they are on different servers

                            That's exactly what I do. I've been using that for a year or two and it works great. I very rarely even get any ads in websites.

                              kind of weird... it blocks the image server for yahoo.com so no images show up on any of the yahoo pages.
