Thanks for all the suggestions. Tried them all with no resolution of the

sudden I can’t access LocalHost. Get this message.

  Forbidden

You don't have permission to access this resource.

Get the “Cannot Find The Site” message when trying to find the website 

with any browser.

Current Host file is :

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
#    127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
     127.0.0.1 Milts1.com
Current Virtual Host is:
<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerAdmin Milts1@xxxxxxxxxxx
     DocumentRoot c:/Apache24/htdocs/Milts1.com/
     ServerName Milts1.com
     ErrorLog logs/Milts1.com
     ServerAlias www.Milts1.com
     CustomLog logs/Milts1.com common
</VirtualHost>
Path to the website is:
C:/Apache24/htdocs/Milts1.com
Any suggestions that will help resolve my problem will be appreciated.

Besides the ServerAlias, You probably also need to add
DirectoryIndex index.html

and also change your document root to the actual root directory where 

your website is located.

    How about appending:
    ServerAlias localhost
