The problem is the "hosts" file.
c:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts
I don't know how to get to it to overwrite it.
But let's leave it that way.
I just went to my own Hosts file on the pc I'm on and it's a generic file with a lot of asterisks in front of each line meaning nothing is being read from it. Meaning you could add your lines to the end of the file or just delete all the Asterisked lines and add your own. As long as you follow the generic format you should be okay, btw I used Notepad. Here's mine right now:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
[...]I have no idea if Windows even has the ability, to the etc/hosts file. It is temporary and MAY BREAK THINGS WHEN THEY FIX IT ON THEIR END, which is why I'm not posting it here. [...]
Windows has the ability. To edit the file you have to run the editor with administrative privileges ("run as administrator").
