Here's another HOSTS file for blocking ad servers, etc (actually, Chris put
me on to this some time ago):

Actually, I just sent the HOSTS file, and found a problem with it.  I'm
attaching a new one for you all.

Chris,

Where did you get the DNS list of the sites that contain malware and
trojans?  I'm interested in creating static DNS entries for these problem
sites that point to the loopback IP address so there is no chance of
infection.  We have done this already for sites such as hotbar.com.

Could you post a copy of the list here or maybe Jim can post it on
thethin.net.

I use Ad-Aware 6 Professional.  It works pretty nicely.  But, I haven't
configured it to use Ad-Watch within a TS environment.  I usually add a
HOSTS file that contains DNS names to websites that contain tracking
cookies, trojans, etc.

Hello,
Does anyone run spyware removal utils like Spybot or Ad-aware on TS or MF
servers, or any suggestions about filtering spyware through firewalls or
routers?

Thanks
Leon
