Please help me find a way to get http://tinyurl.com onto my computer, I have tried dropping my firewall down to the lowest (Zone Alarm)but just get the standard "IE cannot display the web page". Thanks

Ok, do a search for a file called HOSTS. Make sure you search in hidden files and folders. Open the file up using notepad. See if there is any mention of tinyurl in there

Thanks very much for the answer, being a fairly new computer user it may take me a little time to sort it out.

Just as a matter of interest are you using Zone Alarm as your firewall?
