You'll need to edit your hosts file.
On windows NT/2K/XP/2K3 it's located at %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.
On Linux/*BSD it's located at /etc/hosts
Hi thank u all,

hmmm, there are legit reasons for what you are doing and there are illegit reasons...
editing someone elses host file is not cool. If oyu want to hard assign a name to resolve to a certain address, fine... but dont be screwing with ppls host files...
If you are not, my apologies... just since you didnt state a reason to want to do that... sounds fishy.
you are braver than me sword, I dont click on links with "why did THAT happen" attached... looks like the site is down.
thats a pretty standard error message... what do you mean what happens?
thats "no answer" at the computer you are trying to call on port 80.
