  : Hi Everyone,

  : I am pasting the content of an email I got today from Rhonda at Case's concerning the games being down and how to get into the games.

  : This is pretty much what I have already told you from the help forum but will paste it anyway.

  : Ellie

  : http://hoylegames.sierra.com/ seems to be down again. I'm trying to
  : find some information on the problem and if/when it will be resolved.

  : In the meantime, the following seems to work for most players:

  : 1. Open the C:WINDOWS32driversetc folder and right click on
  : the Hosts file.
  : 2. If there is a check mark in the "Read Only" box remove it and then
  : click Apply.
  : 3. Now double click on the Hosts file.
  : 4. When the dialog box opens and asks you what program you want to
  : use to open it, select Notepad.
  : 5. At the bottom of the file starting in the first column and keeping
  : everything on one line enter 8.5.0.53 hoylegames.sierra.com.
  : 6. Be sure that there is at least one space between the IP address
  : and the host name.
  : 7. Close the Hosts file and save it.

  : Also, it may be a good idea to start using and passing along the
  : following link to use instead:
