I can't access the site with IE6 or Opera so, apparently, I don't have
a server daemon running on my computer. When I ping 'www.xicor.com',
it does show the pings to '127.0.0.1'.

Is this requirement for very many websites? How would one know that
the site isn't just down? 

Does running a server daemon open up your computer to any security
vulnerabilities?
