If you're working in Windows 98, the path given does not work. Create the host file, as described above, but just put it in the main Windows directory. That worked perfectly for me, after frustration using the other windows/system32/drivers/etc path.
Once I create the file in the main Windows directory, I had normal access, and was logged in, so I could post.

This is what FINALLY worked for me. Thank you. Now I can have my FR fix.

Hells bells! I just realized I'm going to have to repeat this on my laptop too. Ugh!
