| Zitat: | INFO+TOOLS: IVWBOX - Werbung muss sein! ... ja, aber ...
http://www.50links.de/ivwbox.html
Mit dem 1.1.2002 (ursprünglich 1.11.2001) tritt daher ein neues
Zählsystem in Deutschland in Aktion. Es basiert nicht mehr auf einer erweiterten
Logfile-Analyse des Web-Servers sondern benutzt neue IVW-"Zählboxen".
Diese sind bereits im Einsatz und werden immer dann angesprochen,
wenn in einer HTML-Seite eine URL der Form

| Zitat: | Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts File
What it does ...
The Hosts file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. This file is loaded into memory (cache) at startup, then Windows checks the Hosts file before it queries any DNS servers, which enables it to override addresses in the DNS. This prevents access to the listed sites by redirecting any connection attempts back to the local machine. Another feature of the HOSTS file is its ability to block other applications from connecting to the Internet, providing the entry exists.
You can use a HOSTS file to block ads, banners, 3rd party Cookies, 3rd party page counters, web bugs, and even most hijackers. This is accomplished by blocking the connection(s) that supplies these little gems.
Example - the following entry 127.0.0.1 ad.doubleclick.net blocks all files supplied by that DoubleClick Server to the web page you are viewing. This also prevents the server from tracking your movements. Why? ... because in certain cases "Ad Servers" like Doubleclick (and many others) will try to open a separate connection on the webpage you are viewing.
For XP SP2 users you should see a Security Center prompt about allowing this connection. [screenshot]
Simply click No and continue. Yes the prompts can be annoying but at least you'll know, however you should not see these prompts if these entries are included in the HOSTS file.
Note: this prompt only occurs if (example) *.doubleclick.net is included in the "Restricted Zone".

| Zitat: | MDGx HOSTS File + Tools
http://www.mdgx.com/hosts.htm
• MDGx HOSTS File [1.1 MB] = with > 120,000 host name entries contains 2 different versions:
HOSTS.0 = all local computer IP entries point to 0 (0.0.0.0 abbreviated) [faster]
HOSTS.127 = all local computer IP entries point to 127.0.0.1 [slower]
Use an unZIPping tool to extract all files from HOSTS.ZIP into the same directory/folder.
HOSTS.ZIP contains HOSTS.BAT = run it to install HOSTS on your Windows computer.
HOSTS.BAT will rename selected file [see above] to HOSTS and copy it to:
%windir% = Windows 95/98/ME
%windir%SYSTEM32DRIVERSETC = Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista
%windir% = usually C:WINDOWS [95/98/ME + 2000/XP/2003/Vista] or C:WINNT [NT4/2000].
HOSTS.BAT will also rename [back up] your original HOSTS file (if any) to HOSTS.ORI.
See also READ1ST.TXT for usage guidelines.
I update HOSTS entries frequently.
You can view/modify HOSTS.BAT command lines using Notepad or better ASCII/text editor/viewer.
• Useful HOSTS tools I recommend [100% free(ware)]:
HostTool v0.04 command line DOS console tool for Windows 9x/NT4/2000/ME/XP/2003/Vista queries all DNS servers listed in HOSTS file, detects + lists invalid ones, highly customizable [32 KB].
Connection IP (CIP) Checker v5.00 SR6 for Windows 9x/NT4/2000/ME/XP/2003 queries all DNS servers listed in HOSTS file and deletes invalid ones [186 KB].
Windows + DOS HOSTS Tools: HostTool, CIP, DEDUPE [for DOS] + MSORT [for DOS] [184 KB]...
http://www.mdgx.com/hosts.htm
• HOSTS as anti-adware, anti-malware + popup blocker:
HOSTS is only a primitive anti-adware, anti-spyware, anti-malware + popup blocking tool.
But it can be used to successfully block any internet/network based server/domain from accessing your local computer(s), especially whenever using a web browser.
On the other hand, the HOSTS file can be easily deleted, modified, renamed, moved etc by malware/spyware software to include malware/spying/rogue/phishing/virus/trojan/zombie servers or/and to remove/disable malware servers in the background, without user's knowledge.
That's why it is strongly recommended to install + run a firewall and dedicated anti-spyware + anti-virus tools in order to monitor for, detect and remove any potential malware.
Block (deny access to and from) any host (force that server to default to localhost IP) by preceding its name with 0.0.0.0 (can be abbreviated to 0) or 127.0.0.1. This example:
0.0.0.0 microsoft.com
or abbreviated to (faster):
0 microsoft.com
or (slower):
127.0.0.1 microsoft.com
denies access to and from microsoft.com domain name.
See MDGx HOSTS file for a list of blocked servers.
Rename all your HOSTS file 0.0.0.0 (or abbreviated to 0) instances to 127.0.0.1 (or the other way around) if too slow or if not working.
•Never• rename/modify/delete/remark this HOSTS line:
127.0.0.1 localhost

| Zitat: | HOSTEdit
http://www.zen88802.zen.co.uk
What is HOSTEdit?
HOSTEdit is a powerful utility for Windows 98/98se/Me/2000/XP/Vista for
managing the Windows HOST file. Featuring fast duplicate removal functions,
comment removal and other HOST correcting features. Block unwanted sites
and advertisements, etc.
HOSTEdit was originally designed to help network administrator manage and
deploy HOST file changes. Now HOSTEdit is used by the general public and
professionals as a great way to increase system security using tried and
tested methods.
4 November 2005
I have made some small changes to the website nothing worth noting.
Now the important news. I am planning to create a new version of HOSTEdit.
Which I plan to develop with the C# language. This will allow greater speeds
and much more useful functions and features.
The language currently used to develop HOSTEdit is quite old and lacks features,
support and speed needed to take HOSTEdit to the next level. It also has
limitations which are now starting to creep into my own projects. C# will put
an end to these flaws and give me a great deal of power which will go back
in to my programs, benefiting the end user.
More news on that as I make progress. |

| Zitat: | Microsoft umgeht Hosts-Datei 18.04.2006, 11:40
http://www.pc-magazin.de/common/nws/einemeldung.php?id=44732
Wer unter Windows versucht, mit Hilfe der Hosts-Datei die Auflösung von Domain-Namen nach den eigenen Wünschen umzubiegen, stößt bei ausgewählten URLs auf Widerstand. Alle gehören Microsoft selbst.
Aufgefallen war das ungewöhnliche Verhalten Dave Korn, der darüber in der Sicherheits-Mailingliste Full-Disclosure berichtete. Er wollte mit Hilfe entsprechender Einträge in der Hosts-Datei die automatischen Updates des Windows Media Player unterbinden. Nachdem dies wiederholt scheiterte, untersuchte Korn den Sachverhalt genauer.
Demnach umgeht Windows bei der Auflösung bestimmter Domains die Einträge in der Hosts-Datei, dazu gehören unter anderem www.msdn.com, www.msn.com, go.microsoft.com, office.microsoft.com, microsoftupdate.microsoft.com, www.microsoft.com, update.microsoft.com und windowsupdate.com. Ganz gleich, welche IP-Adressen mit diesen Domains in der Hosts-Datei eingetragen sind, die Domains werden normal aufgelöst.
Über den Zweck des Ganzen kann nur spekuliert werden, denkbar wäre, dass Microsoft dies aus Sicherheitsgründen so einstellt, um Malware keine Chance zu geben, ihrerseits die Domain-Auflösung zu verändern. Ein fader Beigeschmack bleibt mindestens, brächte dies doch einen Vorteil für Microsofts Sicherheitssoftware gegenüber der Konkurrenz.
