Hi sp agent - nope, no problems. Try connecting via the IP# 207.46.106.88. If that works, check your hosts file to make sure that it hasnt accidentally been entered. Cheers

AnnMarie,
This might be a simple question but how do you find the IP address of a web page?
Thanks,

Hi richie259 - Triple7's method will do it but I'm lazy and use the easy way. Go here (http://cello.cs.uiuc.edu/cgi-bin/slamm/ip2name) and paste the url you want the IP# for. It also translates an IP# to a hostname. http://discussions.virtualdr.com/smile.gif
