By removing it in the first place you effectively broke your own networking. I was able to reproduce the behavior on my notebook by editing my system32\drivers\etc\hosts file (commenting out the localhost line) and turning off my wireless adapter. If either the line in the hosts file or the adapter are on, then it works properly. Conclusion: Leave the default entry in your hosts file alone. AFAIK even unix machines have a hosts file with the localhost entry in them, and it is required for proper operation of the machine. Regards, -- Glen Starrett
