Hi Gerald & Scorpio, I am running 2 computers at the moment using a KVM switch. 1 computer is running XP Home, the other is a dual boot box running XP Pro & Windows7 Pro. With both XP systems the , Hosts folder was in: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc
As a matter of fact I couldn't even locate an I-386 folder. Is this I386 folder on the root of the C drive, in place of the Windows folder or, is it inside the Windows folder? I've did a search & came up with nothing but, this was the closest thing I came to I386 with the search; snti386.dll Take care.

In XP Pro, the Hosts file is under I386, but in XP Home, Vista and Win 7, it is under Drivers/Etc, which is in a totally different location.
