|  Re: Block Websites Without Any Softwares Yes the good old host file!! Have known of it for awhile now........ I have a question which i hope i dont look stupid asking: WHY DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE "127.0.0.1 localhost" IN YOUR HOST FILE?? What if you take it out??? -- I know what localhost is and 127.0.0.1 but i dont know why that entry must be in the file........ |
