Weird, anyone else erroring out when going to AOL.com or logging into Instant Messenger?

I am having no other problem surfing.

Can anyone verify that you are getting the same problem with either AOL.com or AOL instant messenger? Just browse to aol.com and tell me if a page comes up or if it gives you a password dialog box.

Yep, here's the problem. I pinged www.AOL.com and it resolved it to 127.0.0.1

Anyone know how to clear that erroneous entry? I thought it was hosts file on the local machine, but there's no AOL.com entry.

ah, just changed DNS server to a different one (not on this network) and it works fine.
