    system32 and hosts file

    I have the 32 bit version of windows xp pro on my 64 bit box, and I am unable to find where the hosts file is hidden....There isn't even a system32 folder in my windows directory! If anyone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

    Thanks,
    Chris

    TOOLS > FOLDER OPTIONS > VIEW = deselect "Hide Protected Operating System Files"

    Now, look for the HOST file to be in the

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
