If you have Spybot or any type of Spyware loaded, you will have to uninstall it. Also, if you have ever downloaded Kazaa or KazaaLite, then it created a file called "Hosts" located in C:\Windows --- please note -- there were 4 files called "Hosts" on my machine and I had to right click on the "Hosts" file and "open with" and chose Notepad. The file will state:

"# localhost: Needs to stay like this to work
127.0.0.1 localhost
# KaZaA related:
127.0.0.1 desktop.kazaa.com
127.0.0.1 www.altnetp2p.com
127.0.0.1 alpha.kazaa.com
127.0.0.1 shop.kazaa.com

Once you find the correct file, you want to rename it "HostsOLD" and reboot your system. This will solve your problem.

This worked for me.
Hope I helped

Search your computer for a file called "hosts." You probably only need one statement in this file which is:

127.0.0.1 localhost

My "hosts." file was located in:
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc

I had installed KaazaLite which added a bunch of lines to this file which screwed up Pogo.

I have not got an answer yet. Nobody has replied. This is so annoying.

Thanks for you also sending a reply.
