Do you know about HOSTS file modifying ?

Aye, had to edit the hosts file a few times to stop Adobe calling home etc.
I was looking at the site this morning thinking have those ads always been there. First time I'd seen them. _________________ My Real Name: Pete

Yep, definitely very helpful James. I hadn't heard of HOSTS file modification before.
Done and dusted now and ad-free .. nice one. Good call. _________________ *If you're not on the list .. you're not gettin' in*

Hi All
I followed the instructions & the ads went. Now each page takes ages (up to a minute to load. Is this common ?
I think i would rather bear with the ads. Any suggestions?
