Hosts - Blocking Ads
Is it possible, as it was with Win98 to block certain domains by adding a
file to the windows directory called 'Hosts' (no extension)? I have not been able to test this. |

Hosts - Blocking Ads
A much better idea is to use Internet Connection Firewall to block ranges of
IP addresses. An even better idea is to do this with third-party firewall software, which is more powerful than the basic firewall native to XP. The Hosts file was always a poor way to block URLs.
