Recently found Picasa unexpectedly can not open, according to netizens reflect they also can not open, ruled out the local network service provider reason, it seems that Picasa may be harmonious. Unfortunately, I have so many photos inside. Angry for a while, and today finally found a way to take out the photos inside. That's using the Hosts file. The specific methods are as follows:
Use Notepad to open the Hosts file, Hosts file located in: c:windowssystem32driversetchosts
Add the following in the Hosts file:
#picasaweb. google.com
203.208.39.104 picadaweb.google.com
203.208.39.104 lh1.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh2.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh3.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh4.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh5.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh6.ggpht.com
Save. Input: Http://picasaweb.google.com/home, try, can not open, haha ...
The above IP address 203.208.39.104 can also be replaced by 203.208.33.100 to try.
How does the Hosts file work, and what role does it have in concrete use?
1, speed up the domain name resolution
For Web sites to visit frequently, we can configure the domain name and IP mapping relationships in hosts so that when we enter a domain name computer, we can quickly resolve IP without requesting a DNS server on the network.
2, Convenient LAN users
In many units of the local area network, there will be a server for users to use. However, because the LAN rarely set up a DNS server, access to these services to enter the difficult to remember the IP address, for many people is quite troublesome. Now you can give these servers an easy to remember name, and then set up an IP map in the hosts, so we will enter the name of the server later on the line.
3, shielding the site
Now a lot of web sites without user consent to install a variety of plug-ins to your computer, some may be trojans or viruses. For these sites we can use hosts to map the site's domain name to the wrong IP or its own computer's IP, so no access. We write the following in the hosts:
127.0.0.1# Shielded Web site
0.0.0.0# Shielded Web site
So the computer resolution of the domain name to the native or wrong IP, to achieve the purpose of shielding.
4. Smooth Connection System
For Lotus servers and some database servers, access is inaccessible if you enter the IP address directly, and you can only enter the server name to access it. Then we configure the hosts file, so that the input server name can be successfully connected.
Finally, it is pointed out that the Hosts file configuration mapping is static, if the computer on the network changes, please update the IP address in time, otherwise it will not be accessible.
