Which usually means your localhost setup is broken (because<BR /> lots of applications use networking internal to your machine - which is always on its own<BR /> subnet, so those packets should never even escape the computer) or, far less commonly,<BR /> that your netmask for your own external address is wrong. <BR /><BR /><BR />Read the document that you will find following the above link for more info. (and learn to use google :) )<BR /><BR />E.
