Editing Your Hosts File Can Kill Web Bugs and Spyware!
Look in your windows directory on your PC for a file called “HOSTS” (not “HOSTS.bak” or “HOSTS.SAM”, just plain “HOSTS” w/o any extension on it). Open this file in notepad so you can edit it. Please be aware that some versions of Windows keep the HOSTS file buried somewhere deep under the system or system32 directory so you might have to perform a “find file” search to locate it on your machine.
