hpGuru - hpHosts Critical Update New Feature

hpGuru Hosts new feature:

Hi Gang!

Today I am introducing a new Critical Updates feature to hpHOSTS.

In between hosts updates I often become aware of sites which are dangerous because they exploit their visitors in one way or another, but for various reasons I'm not always able to immediately update the hpHOSTS in response to these threats. To solve this problem I am now making these hosts entries available in a separate critical updates file.

The Critical Updates File (critical.txt) is not a hosts file but will contain entries which users can manually add to their current version of hpHOSTS. This file will only include confirmed exploiters (hijackers, spy/malware pushers, phishers, fraudsters and any other types of low-life exploiters we find. You will still need to update to the most recent version of hpHOSTS to get the latest updates for blocking ads, trackers, common spammers and so on.

The first edition of hpHOSTS Critical Updates is available for download now at the URL below. Please check back daily to keep your hosts file up to date.

QUOTE FROM hpGuru
I have added a critical updates feature to hpHOSTS (see above POST for details). It isn't a full hosts update so there is no need to modify the last update date to the hpHOSTS line above but you might want to add the most recent critical update date (today) to that line. The download link is the same.

FYI critical updates will be made available ASAP after I become aware dangerous sites to add.
