Hi Mastertech,
Which is so for XP and XP Pro, but not for people running updated older versions like Win 98 SE unofficial updated version. Lots of people use these on older machines in the second and third world, and they want to be well protected as well.
Also some server types use hosts files. A story is right, completely right, and partly right. Why do people still make updates for hostfiles, why there are block files around, when there is no need for it or when it is outdated security?
