Does anyone know how to get IP addresses to work in the Hosts
file? I've tried both with and without the http:// and still
those IP addresses I added are still accessible. These are
those infuriating browser hijacks where the "cyber-terrorist"
IP address hijacks a webpage and takes you to some kind BS scam
("WARNING: YOUR PC IS INFECTED...PERFORMING SCAN NOW....."
etc., etc.), and the URL of those types of pages are not
domains but IP addresses. If I could find a way for those IP's
to work in the Hosts file (XP) I'd get nothing but "The page
cannot be displayed".
Thanks,
-Clint
