n0I am unable to view one web site (home page fpr my ISP - Roadrunner). It
appears that the site opens; however, I simply see a blamk screen. I am able
to access all other sites available by Roadrunner (help site, member
services, etc...).

This is the only site on the web I cannot see! Any suggestions?

I just recently purchased a new PC & am using XP w/Mediac Center (new to XP).

Check C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc for a file named HOSTS with no
extension. (Not Hosts.sam)
Make sure Windows is set to show hidden files and folders and is NOT set to
hide extensions for known file types.
If HOSTS exists, rename it to HOSTS.OLD
Reboot an try again.

Or, In a Cmd window, enter
ipconfig /flushdns
then clear your TIF also, and re-boot.
