Hosts files info needed

[Deleted member 2913]

Dan Pollock, MVPS & hpHosts.

Can anyone tell me all the 3 hosts details i.e what all the 3 hosts blocking contains i.e ads, tracking, malware, social networking, etc...?

Ads
Tracking
Malware
Social Networking

It's not difficult to figure out what they are blocking, just look at the Hosts files details.

So any experience/info which one would be better...like low FPs i.e blocking legit sites, content, etc...?

Thanxx for the link. These are not in Hosts format.
I am trying to use Comodo Internet Security Web Filter. Lists in Hosts format can be used in CIS. Dont know how to use lists that are not in Hosts format or is possible or not with CIS?

I tried hpHosts. Everything was fine but removing the lists takes very long time i.e more than 30 mins. Tried 3 times with the same results. Guess coz the lists is huge.

Only reason I linked you to that...... does the same thing you need. I have never used Comodo so not sure about that....
