[quote]I will try the "Hostsman" as I am leary of messing around with the
registry.[/quote]  Wise idea.

[quote]The address in Windows 7 Pro is different than what you stated.[/quote]  I didn't.  [u][b][url=http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923947]Microsoft[/url][/b][/u] and [u][b][url=http://www.brighthub.com/computing/windows-platform/articles/65960.aspx]Brighthub[/url][/b][/u] did.

Do you have a 64-bit machine?  Look in Brighthub for the correct address.  [b]And if you do have a 64-bit machine, it's always worth telling us, because things work differently on those.[/b]

[quote=Brighthub.com]The User Account Control in Windows Vista and Windows 7 might prevent you in replacing or updating your Hosts file. You need to have a higher permission before replacing the Hosts file. You can also use HostsMan or HostsXpert programs to manage and update your hosts file without the need to deal with UAC. If you need to reset the Hosts file, you can use the Microsoft Fix It 50267.[/quote]  The "[i]higher permission[/i]" they talk about is what Microsoft calls "[i]elevated administrative rights[/i]": In W7, M$ doesn't fully trust Admins :O

OK.  Just for interest, what [b]was[/b] the address of the pop-up?
