how can I browse 127.0.0.1/local host?

[zyx123]

There is one answer in "Appendix C. Troubleshooting Guide", but may not suitable for my case.
it says"If you cannot browse 127.0.0.1 or localhost, check if you have configured a HTTP proxy in the browser. If so, disable proxy usage for 127.0.0.1 and localhost. "

However, my computer connects to internent only by dial up, so I haven't configured a HTTP proxy in the browser.
and I still can't browser http://127.0.0.1

anybody can help me?
Thank you in advance. :)

:) Thank you for your reply

I did go to IE's Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings and found a proxy is not defined.

And after I execute "ping 127.0.0.1" in DOS command window,
the results are as following:

F:\>ping 127.0.0.1

Pinging 127.0.0.1 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=128

Ping statistics for 127.0.0.1:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 1ms, Average = 0ms

Does this mean I could ping my local machine successfully?
What should I do next to access http://127.0.0.1 ?

yes 127.0.0.1 works on your machine which means abyss is not working correctly on your machine

According to ping, 127.0.0.1 is OK as your local IP address.
Now, stop Abyss Web Server and restart it. Is there any error message in Abyss window? If not, please get the local console URL (as displayed in its window) and browse it. It should be by default http://127.0.0.1:9999 .
What do you get? If there is an error message in the browser, please copy/paste it or describe it with the maximum precison.

I finally figure it out.
maybe because I configure the "Dialup setting" in IE option.
anyway, by now, when I access 127.0.0.1, I get the default html provide by this web server.

Thank you again!
by the way, when I ping 127.0.0.1, I still get the same result as before.
