1. Go to your start menu
2. Select "Run"
3. In the "Open" bar, enter "C\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\HOSTS" (without quotes...this is different if you're not using XP)
4. An "Open With" window will open, choose Notepad.
5. Copy and paste the following into the line after "127.0.0.1 localhost"

Good job! I'd say you could be a technical writer, but steps should always start with verbs. ;)

Thanks for the detailed instructions. For me, "127.0.0.1 localhost" was right near the top, so when people said to put it at the bottom, it didn't work.
