http://www.example.com not working

Hi and thank you for the reply. I am still trying to find out why example.com does not work for my information.

If you mistakenly saved your "hosts" file as "hosts.txt" then your edits will be of no value. Notepad has a habit of adding the .txt

I would recommend a double-check of the contents of your hosts file.
If you're absolutely certain that the file is the correct file, then post the contents here.

Hi
I deleted what was in the file, resaved it in it's original format. I then re-edited the file and saved it and now it works just fine. Thanks for everyone's input. It is appreciated.
