shdoclc.dll error, Can't access SOME websites

Actually, Win9x does not come with a HOSTS file by default. There may be a
Hosts.sam file, which is simply a sample file set to show the syntax used.

The HOSTS file is on every system. It may be empty or have data in it.

How do I know if I am using a HOST FILE, if I am using it, what should I
do

Are you using a host file? The entries in it - generally
popup/ad/spyware sites - will be redirected to your own computer and
you'll get the page can't be displayed thing.

If so - and if you really, really, REALLY want to browse the page - open
the host file with Notepad, find the URL/domain, put REM in front of it
and save.

If you don't know you probably aren't. "Find" will find it if you are.
Or just look in C:\WINDOWS

Already told you. You can read it with Notepad.
