ad blocking hosts file updated!   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #25 of 48 |
Hey everyone,

I had to remove one ad server that was causing trouble and added a
dozen or so more. Spread the word, send me ad servers, etc you guys
know the spiel by know.

Available here:

Also, I just learned a neat trick. If you're running the squid web
proxy it recognizes the system hosts file and blocks ads for everyone
who uses the proxy. That must be a massive bandwidth saver for a
large LAN using squid. Also, I think the IPCOP firewall works with my
hosts file too.

Enjoy your new year!

Mike
