{QUOTE-> Update: As of Summer 2003, Stephen Martin is no longer maintaining a hosts file. If you want one of his versions, you may download the February 7th, 2003 file from the archives below. The current hosts file is now maintained by Mike Meyer, author of HostsToggle , and the link above will get you his latest version, in the 127.0.0.1 format. If you would prefer to have the file in the 0.0.0.0 format, please download this file instead. <-QUOTE}

Actually, a Hosts file that is maintained more frequently than that one seems to be, and which is of a quality that I've trusted since I first installed its 07/25/2002 version is this one maintained by hpguru:

So I downloaded HOSTESS and combined HOSTS files from all of these sites....

http://accs-net.com/hosts/get_hosts.html
http://webpages.charter.net/hpguru/hosts/hosts.html
KaZaALite's list of SuperTricks and other crappy ad-servers
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm
http://remember.mine.nu/

Now I got an 800KB HOSTS file with no duplicate entries at all. Very powerful indeed...

Hi MakoFusion,

Ever considered to add your favorites as well?
I did that using FastNet99 (http://www.winsite.com/bin/Info?4000000036376).
