Hello .. i'm extremely new in this but i'm not afraid to try and fix problems that i havewith my computer ... right now i have a problem that i would like to fix in order to be able to get to certain websites that i use often ...
and i will talk about my prblem now ...
I'm trying to get to www . ebay . com and my browser is giving me "The page cannot be displayed" ... i asked a friend and told me to try to ping the site and see what address do i get from it .. and it seems that it shows my localhost IP 127.0.0.1 now i have searched and found some commands from ipconfig and tried that /displaydns and in that list certain adresses have their IP but some sites as the one above they have this and i will paste what i have ..
