The IP Address 127.0.0.1 falls within the Internet's Private or Reserved IP
Address Space.
If you have detected this address apparently assigned to a remote computer, the
IP address
is in error or has been forged.
Details: This block is assigned for use as the Internet host loopback address.
A datagram
sent by a higher level protocol to an address anywhere within this block should
loop back
inside the host. This is ordinarily implemented using only 127.0.0.1/32 for
loopback, but no
addresses within this block should ever appear on any network anywhere
[RFC1700, page 5].

Is there any way for me to query a given machine to find out
"who" is camped out "listening to" 127.0.0.1?
I am playing with "homer." (http://www.funkytoad.com/content/view/14/32/)
It will not start because somebody else beats homer to 127.0.0.1 for
"listening."
Yes, this is another progy advised from "mvps.org" that gives out the
"hosts" files. I am playing ATM.
