Hey everyone,

I added some new ad servers. The internet is usable again. You can

screen again.

Hey Everyone,

I just did a small-ish update to the ad blocker and fixed the AOL
webmail problem some of you have written to me about.  Updated
installer and raw hosts file can be gotten here:

http://www.everythingisnt.com/hosts.html

I'm also happy to report that this group is now 1640 members big! That
officially makes this the 1 millionth most popular yahoo group!
Highballs and Daquiri's all around! Seriously, its great to see so
many people involved.

As usual, donations are welcome and site licenses are available for
commercial organizations.

Hey everyone,

I removed a few dozen dead servers (all this time?), added a few new
ad servers, and while working on a flat tax proposal discovered that
some breed of dogs can learn American Sign Language.

Also, I think I fixed an amazon.com and yahoo mail issue.  And a
special hello to the 100 or so new members of this group who have
joined since my last update.

Dear Mortals,

I, The Keeper of the List, have updated the sacred list.  It is
available for worship here:

http://www.everythingisnt.com/hosts.html

It fixes a problem with what your mortals call "ebay." It also adds
more of these "servers" which cause you so much annoyance.

The Keeper
(Mike)

Arr Mateys!

I have caught many white whales from the sea you landlubbers call the
internet.  I also, with a heavy heart, have removed many dead whales
that no longer serve ads. They were worthy foes.  A tear is running
down my eye-patch.

Updated hosts file and installer are here:

http://www.everythingisnt.com/hosts.html

I'm also happy to see that this group has broken past 1,000 members!

Mike

P.S. Consider donating.  There's a paypal donate button on the
webpage. If one out of 1,000 users of this hosts file gave between 2
and 5 dollars it would pay for my web hosting fees and make up for all
the time I spend doing free tech support and maintaining the high
quality of this list.

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:
http://everythingisnt.com/hosts.html

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

Hey Everyone,

I updated the hosts file and the installer.  I also removed a couple
ad servers that were delivering normal content.  Enjoy, pass the word
around, and keep those adservers coming.

Hey Everyone,

I added more ad servers and fixed the issue with dogpile.com not
working.  I also changed the 127.0.0.1's to 0.0.0.0. It seems faster
and won't fill up web logs if you're running a web server.

It looks like I broke salon.com's free daily pass, but this version
removes the block that was causing the problem.  I also added a few
more ad servers.  Enjoy your free content.
