Hosts file in windows/system32/drivers/etc

Question

I added some ip addresses to this file just tinkering around and now when I try to go to dell.com, in my address bar, im taken to ebay. I tried deleting the ip addresses i entered, but its still doing it. Also, all other ips that i added and then deleted work fine. anyone have any thoughts?   Thanks   Message Edited by chadwinkler on 02-25-2004 12:11 PM
