I know, I was dabbling in something I know nothing about. However, I now have a new Adobe ID and have downloaded a PS CS6 trial. Thanks for your interest.
Just trying to save you a few hours/days/weeks of heartache. People who edit the hosts file to add things generally forget about the entries there, then Adobe (or whoever) changes the IP address of the server, leading to you having ages troubleshooting why your website won't work. From your reply it sounded like you had that issue.
