RE: localhost will not browse to website.



Sounds like you have the correct config. Note, when I ping localhost as well
my reture is the same as well:
Reply from ::1: time<1ms
Reply from ::1: time<1ms
Reply from ::1: time<1ms
Reply from ::1: time<1ms
When I ping 127.0.0.1 my return is:
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64
Curious, if you enter just 127.0.0.1 does it resolve properly?
