[Dxbase] Help

[n8dc-8 at comcast.net]

Ok just when I figured WIN 7 was going to work just fine with DxBase ive ran into a problem. 
I cant open the internet window. It tells me the packet com manager failed ? Well it opens but wont connect. 
Also it cant find the hosts file ? Does it need it ?.. The funny thing is it was running just fine yesterday and I let this computer run all the time .Today it doesnt work ?
