HOSTS File help....
I have setup my HOSTS file to redirect about 1000000000000 spam websites to 127. 0. 0. 1 which works great. However alot of sites I visit, like someones webshots in community. webshots. com, have adds that take a while to load, and then load as a page not found.
I have setup my HOSTS file to redirect about 1000000000000 spam websites to 127.0.0.1 which works great. However alot of sites I visit, like someones webshots in community.webshots.com, have adds that take a while to load, and then load as a page not found. If I attempt to go back, it just tries to reload that advertisement.
Example:
http://www.webshots.com/search?query=cool+pictures&new=1&source=search_results_top
if you go there, the advertisement on the right side of the page does not load for me. Instead it loads up as a page not found.
Is there any way to stop that from loading all together so I can click back on the internet and have the page go back to the previous page rather than to the same page w/ that advertisement attempting to reload.
Or, atleast, is there a way I can edit it so everything that comes up under 127.0.0.1 is a page I created that is just blank.
