DSl or Browser? 1

[Texsraider]

I currently utilize a DSL connection to browse the web. My system is comprised of WinXP Pro, IE 6 with SP1, 1GHZ PIII machine, 512 RAM. I built this system awhile back and it has operated flawlessly. I recently moved and my SBC DSL service moved as well (10 blocks). I can connect to the net with no problem but I can not browse E-Bay but before we moved I could. We are trying to do some christmas shopping and for some reason I can go to the site home page but not further into the site. I get that "dns error-page not found, click here to have IE6 detect settings". When I try to browse the site I get page not found errors one after the other. I can however log into my computer at work from home and browse all of E-BAy so I know it is not an e-bay problem but a problem with my computer or browser. I have adjusted my DNS server search order IP's and that has not helped(has sped up site load), I have also checked IE6 security and privacy and that has not led to any fix. This is driving this Network Admin crazy! Please help.....

Search your computer for a file named hosts (include hidden and system files in your search). If you find this file, open it with notepad and if there is a reference to ebay, delete it.

Guess you read my post under browser issues. Changing name of host file to host.txt fixed the problem completely. Thanks for all the help!!
