how to set up 'localhost' for IE?

Hi,

I have installed phpdev that comes with mysql/phpMyAdmin/php/apache.
verything works fine with Netscape but i have trouble setting up IE to load
http://localhost. I always get a 500 This page cannot be displayed error. I
have no idea where i should go to correct this. Any help would be
appreciated!

Thanks.

Make sure that your IE setting don't use proxy server for local address.
Tools menu -> Internet Options -> Connections tab -> LAN settings ...
check the box for bypass proxy server for local address.

Also you might want to try http://localhost/

Or even http://127.0.0.1/

re. proxy setting: that is my IE's default setting not to use proxy server.
However when i disabled the "Automatically detect settings" it works.Thanks
for the help.
