Right, that eliminates it being a problem with your browser. In that case my guess would be a glitch in the way AOL is caching the site. But if you do want to check your hosts file, Windows buries it at c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts, usually as a hidden file.

What happens is that none of the browsers I've tried, Firefox and IE7, will load the page, instead I get the usual server not found/Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage error message.
