I am trying to poison my host file to remap a domain of mine for development of my site on a new hosting partner. I have opened up the host file in Administrator mode and made the change, and have saved it.
I then flushed my DNS, cleared my browser cache, history and closed it down.
Reloading the site in the now fresh browser and DNS cache, still resolves to my live site and not the new IP.
I am using Win 8.1.1 Pro. I have done this in the past and have never had any issues up until now. Any ideas?
