anyone know what's going on with this site and the uspits. i haven't been
able to log on to them for over a month now?
Both are fine here and speaking for the Pits, I know we haven't had any
server problems in quite awhile.
Although BHMS could crash at anytime with Jure and his Javascripts. <VBG>

if yr in the same boat i was in, you couldn't get there from here, or in my
case, i had to try some other access numbers from earthlink. one guy helped
me said the same thing had happened to him with mindspring, same thing. try
different access numbers.
when they went to finland or something is when they dropped out for a
while......took me a few weeks to even get up the nerve to ask since there's
usually posts here on whats happening and where they've gone.
hope this helps

A Fix For Disappearing Web Sites in Win9x
If for some inexplicable reason, you suddenly cannot get to certain web
sites anymore from your PC, yet they work fine from another PC, you might
have a bad host file on your PC. Here's the likely cause and what you can do
to set it right.
Some ISPs are trying to limit the amount of work they have to do in order to
relieve the load on their systems and work more efficiently. For that
reason, they store the IP address for commonly visited web sites in a small
file locally on your PC called Hosts. When you type in the web site address,
the browser actually checks first if such a hosts file exists before it
talks to your ISP's domain name server (The DNS is the server that processes
your request for a web site when you use a name rather than a series of
numbers, like "www.pcnineoneone.com"). If it finds the information it needs
in there, it will take the IP address from this file and use it to go to the
site. This eliminates the need to check with the ISP's DNS server first and
shaves off valuable milliseconds of your browsing time. Again, this works
most of the time and can be very efficient, but if the IP address (the
numerical address) for the site has changed, even if the name remains
unchanged, you of course have a problem since you will be directed to the
wrong web server. The only way to remedy this problem is by editing the
Hosts file. Replace the old IP with the new one, or remove the entry for
that site completely, or by renaming or removing the Hosts file so that the
browser is forced to inquire with the DNS server to find out the correct IP
address each time you request a web page. To find your Hosts file, go to
Start/Find/Files or Folders, type in Hosts (no extension) and hit Enter. If
it finds the file, you can right-click on it, choose Open with... and select
Notepad. Now you can edit the file. Look for the site that you have problems
with and either remove the entry for that site or replace it with the new
correct IP address.
If you don't know the correct new IP address, you can find it by going to
Start/Run, type command and hit Enter. In the resulting DOS window, type
ping www.websitename.com and hit Enter. One of the first lines that appears
will show you the correct current IP address. after you are done editing the
file, save the file and exit Notepad. Now fire up your browser and try
again, you should be able now to visit the site.
