    Default How to block ads........

    My friend found a 'multi platform' client from our good friend Locusts list of IM clients and it has ADS. (I thought AIM only had ads) Does anyone know what address to add to your host file to block the ads in qnext?? (http://www.qnext.com)

    Thanx.....Peace

    127.0.0.1 www.incentaclick.com is the most important line! I have just posted the other one, because it might help blocking some other ads of this company while surfing on the net.

    If you add e.g. 127.0.0.1 oldversion.com to your hosts file, www.oldversion.com still works, but if you try to visit http://oldversion.com it will be blocked.

    Sorry i dont know how to explain it better, because my english is bad. :-(
