ssh'ing to a GNU/Linux machine from WindowsXP

I frequently SSH to a GNU/Linux ( Fedora Core 7 ) machine from a WindowsXP system. I have Xming to import remote display to local system, while I use putty to SSH to the Linux system. Since some days I was facing this strange problem. I could ssh to the linux system fine but could not import the display while launching any gui on the remote system. I got the following error

_X11TransSocketINETConnect() can't get address for localhost:6010: Name or service not known
Display localhost:10.0 unavailable, simulating -nw

It turns out that this was occuring because of a corrupt /etc/hosts file on the Linux system. In fact the /etc/hosts file read as below:

::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

God only knows why that was the case. Anyways I fixed the /etc/hosts file to read as below:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost

And wallah it worked fine as before !

I googled for a solution and found on this page. This post did the trick for me. Thanks tomrosenfeld :D

Another problem that might be interesting to solve

Any professional presentation on the Web or T.V. has a host reading the que lines on the monitor and making it look as if the talk was off the cuff or prepared and rehearsed or anything but being read off the screen. I often find myself scrutinizing the eyes of the host to see how well he does the job :P.

Anyways the problem is this how to make it look like they are not reading it off the monitor.
