I got a new Windows 7 PC a couple of months ago. Finally got around to
trying to plug in an IP address so I could just type in JERRY for a site,
rather than have to remember the IP address.



However, Windows is telling me that "Access Denied" when I try to save the
changes to the c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file. I am the only
user of this PC (it sits in my living room), and I am the Administrator for
it.



So, what gives? Is the Hosts file that I need to change located somewhere
else?
