your hosts file probably corrupted? Open DOS and type: CODE
nslookup localhost
copy paste the result here. |

IPB checks for a valid IP, then allows you to install it. Try setting this: $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = 122.121.123.222; in the config page. So thats the IP recognized by IPB which is valid. Note: I havent tried it  but I remember there was something like that where they validate the ipb before allowing you to use it.
Added on February 16, 2010, 5:51 pmHere is the line of code that checks the IP in /sources/base/ipsRegistry.php CODE //-----------------------------------------
// Make sure we take a valid IP address
//-----------------------------------------
if ( ( ! self::instance()->ip_address OR self::instance()->ip_address == '...' ) AND ! isset( $_SERVER['SHELL'] ) AND $_SERVER['SESSIONNAME'] != 'Console' )
{
print "Could not determine your IP address";
exit();
}
