Create a forward lookup zone for hotbar.com, which will make your DNS Servers think they are authoritative for it. Then under the hotbar.com FLZ: www IN A 127.0.0.1 -----Original Message----- From: Rick Fogarty [mailto:rick@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, October 24, 2003 12:50 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Offtopic: Killing Hotbar? Exactly how did you do that. We have several things like this we'd like to try...

Put the following line in your Hosts file: 127.0.0.1 www.hotbar.com This will just block access to it. Bruce Jarrett-Norton Dart Energy Corporation Desktop and Network Support Tech.

Anyone know of a way to filter or strip off the "Hotbar" components of a legit email without blocking the entire message? (From www.hotbar.com) If you haven't experienced this yet...Hotbar has TONS of spyware that will cause 10-30 popups PER HOUR and will silently install other spyware\malware if a user installs it on their system. We're using Exchange 2k on Win2k. Any hints besides blocking access to www.hotbar.com would be greatly appreciated. (Incidentally, AdAware 6.0 from www.download.com is EXCELLENT at killing this) ******************************************************** This Week's Sponsor - NetX Inc.
