Hosts File : New Tutorial!

I just mad a change to this one and I think it looks better.

Under "Option Three" I removed the second snip and put the ping commands in a Code box.

:)

Wow, thanks for the info. I've always wondered how to do that manually. That's good.

If I may -- not intending to show up the work you've done -- I've always used Spybot - Search & Destroy for adding Host Files automatically.

Hello mpcrsc562.



Thanks, Spybot S&D is the first time I'd heard of the Hosts File also, it's just something that caught my interest and I decided to learn how it works.


Actually, the MVPS Hosts File in the "Info" is a very good Hosts File to use.

Thank you.

Is it as simple as cut and paste to add from MVPS to my system?

Figured it out...

Used MVPS batch file then used Spybot to add its list.

For those interested.



I've re-done a couple of the snips and repositioned some of the watermarks, I also made all the links look the same; to me , it looks a lot better.
