Hi,
Is one supposed to use cmd and flush dns after editing the host file ?
Code:ipconfig /flushdns

Hi,
I didn't have much if any host list before so it was only about dozen or so text lines lol :)
I pretty much delete everything on exit so frequent websites not needed :)
But flush dns wouldn't effect the new list would it ?
Some more interesting reading..

Monero differs from Bitcoin in that its transactions are virtually untraceble, and there is no way for an outsider to track Monero transactions between two parties. Naturally, this quality makes Monero an especially appealing choice for cybercriminals.

I fell victim to a browser coin miner just this week on a well known company's website. The moderator confirmed the code was maliciously placed and has since been removed.
I first noticed my CPU temps were very high on the desktop and thought my cooler had failed and brought a replacement! I then noticed the high CPU utilization of Chrome in Task Manager and eventually found the culprit website. Apparently if I had Malwarebyte's premium I would have been protected.
Are there any Chrome extensions you guy's have preferences on or is this host file the way to go? Cheers!
