 Re: Potential Solution To Startup And Update Problems If you did not create those entries intentionally, you must have software running that adds those lines to your host file. That software may be an anti-spyware utility that's not having the intended effect, but spyware that is.

| Potential Solution To Startup And Update Problems I found this in a completely unrelated site, but it worked for me. Find a file called HOSTS and open it in Notepad. You'll find that all of the lines start out with an address (such as 127.0.0.1) and then have site name. Look for any site the starts with 'MY'. You can either delete the line or (recommended) put a '# ' at the beginning of the line. Save the file and restart your machine. For me, this cleared a miriad of problems I was having, not just with MSB, but by taking care of other lines specific to Microsoft Support. |
