    I am having problems connecting to some web pages eg www.microsoft.co.uk

    I'm told it may be due to my Windows registry set up.

    I'm running Windows 98 SE

    Any clues anyone??

    Er all i can think of is locate your "host" file. On my Win 2000 Professional it is located C:\Winnt\system32\drivers\etc host.file. I am not computer savvy but if you can locate that file (if 98 even has it) and open it with notpad you should see, near the bottom a bunch of urls. if you see the ones you cant connect to then delete them and should solve your problem. HOWEVER I am an ***** so seek a second opinion.
