Hi, Samson,
                  i tried that . If i do that , i do not get the internet access. The main modem light of connection, does not work, if i set the default as mail site.
                     I have already written to them , but no response whatsoever.
The Bottom line is "Check your hardware first if it supports the task you try".

Hi, samson,
                         i edited the hosts file to default. For two days, i was without internet access due ot power cut  and also cable repair. Without knowing that, i thought that the mail site has stopped internet activity and my ping to default gateway was successful. But , on checking the telephone line, it was not working, the wire had been disconnected .After repairing the telephone fault I tried with the default hosts, and to my surprise, no redirection up to now. But i do not know, when it will happen. If redirects, i will allow one time and then try to browse without any break.
