Hi,
I can't access localhost, I've tried http://localhost and http://127.0.0.1.
I get the following error message:
The conection was refused when attempting to contact localhost.
I tried pinging localhost in command.com, and everything worked fine.
I'd really appreciate any help, thanks.
I'm using Mozilla 1.0 RC3 but i also have the same problem with IE6 too.
