Hello all;
I came across a very informative article on updating your computer's HOSTS file and ensuring that the HOSTS file doesn't get too big b/c apparantly, a too large HOSTS file can slow down your machine.
Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts File
After you've gone to the web link, make sure that you do read the entire web page. ITs not that long. But is really informative to ensure that your computer is blocking unwanted sites.
There's also a link to ensure that your HOSTS file is kept up to date. You can subscribe to it, I believe.
Anyways...Hope that you like this article that I found. I think that you;'ll like it since it talks about computer security.
This is a very simple and really easy thing to do.
Hope you like it and found it useful.
