Check the headers. No References: header. Ergo: new thread.
Albeit with references from a thread with the same name and hence
grouped under it by your newsreader. ; )
So, he answered the same question you asked the original OP.
FWIW the additional symptom description looks like either a DNS
or browser problem.
I've had a similar problem, it's caused by a so called "dnssd.dll" - made by an apple lover :)). Look for it in your system32 folder and delete it.
Look for the file named as hosts in %windows\system32\drivers\etc for more
than 4 Mb and deletee the files
It will work.
