Re: Website



Pinging www.microsoft.com [127.0.0.1] with 32 bytes of data:

notice that this is stating the localhost IP is being used for the name
www.microsoft.com instead of the actual IP

This is likely due to an entry in the Hosts file on that machine.
Edit the Hosts file so that only what you do want is in it, and then
determine how the file was altered without your awareness.

Hi,

I cannot browse www.microsoft.com and most of its sub links
If I try 'ping www.microsoft.com', it returns

Pinging www.microsoft.com [127.0.0.1] with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=128

Ping statistics for 127.0.0.1:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

My system is installed with Windows 2000 Professional with SP4 rollup 1,
and
also IIS is installed. While IIS service is running, if I try to browse
www.microsoft.com, it asks for username and password. The IE address bar
automatically change the website name to
http://www.microsoft.com/localstart.asp. If stop the IIS website and ftp
service, it shows page cannot be displayed. How can I overcome this issue?

I cannot browse most of the Microsoft sites. In some pages, it shows
asp.net
2.0 framework's requested resource not found error message.
