PKRWUD, that is the problem I was referring to with one of our advertisers deliver company's server(s). I've noticed that valueclicks servers seems to do this periodically. I'm ready to cut them off, because it's not worth hurting the site's performance on a recurring basis. Valuelick delivers many of the smaller 125x125 banners on the left side of the site, which appear under the navigation. It just depends, because we use ad services, but also do our own ad delivery and rotations as well.
95mustanggt, on Windows 95/98/ME you have to edit a file in the "Windows" directory called, "lmhosts". Open notepad, direct it to the windows directory, and then just manually type in lmhosts as the filename to open. If it already exists it will open it, if not it will ask you to create a new file. Say yes. Enter:
216.122.146.10 mustangworks.com
216.122.146.10
www.mustangworks.com
However, be aware that this could also be a bad idea because if we ever change server IP addresses for some reason or add additional servers and use multiple IP's (we do now on varying conical domain names) then you would still be going to the old IP address if you keep your system from doing DNS lookups on our domain name.
