Not so.  localhost will work regardless of the site name you gave it.  the
"host" identifies the computer, not the server's name.

Maybe Wei needs to uncomment the line for localhost in the "hosts" file -
located in the Windows or Winnt directory.

Before trying that, try using 127.0.0.1.  If that connects, change the hosts
file.  In not, make sure you are working on-line (some browsers work
off-line by default if you are not hooked up to a network).
