Paul,

I don't use Win95 (or Win98) so the following advice could
be totally bogus, but you should have a file on your
system:  C:\windows\hosts

If it's called hosts.sam, copy or rename it to hosts.  The
file should have a line in it that looks something like:

127.0.0.1   localhost

If you add an entry that matches what BaseHTTPServer.py
considers to be host, you should be okay.
