Do you want to block bugs, viruses, malicious parasites, pop ups, annoying flash ads and more from your web browsing experience? Well this little program makes it super easy to do. With the help of MVPS.org this little program will patch your host file to render 90% of all threats and advertisements you encounter during your web browsing experience inoperable, and with zero resources used on your machine. The concept is quite easy. Most malicious programs and scripts on the internet are not hosted on the base website you are viewing but from a redirected script that points to another website were the malicious scripting is stored. By disabling the advertisement that the script is attached to you also make yourself less likely to contract the viruses and parasites that are attached to the advertisement you see.

Hungry for more? Download the zip file below, extract to your desktop and run “hoster.exe”. A dialog will popup that looks like this.

Click on patch and the program will access the host file located at mvps.org and copy it to your windows host file. If you want to patch another host file from say a live CD environment, then you can click on the “Host File?” button to select the host file you want to patch.

Any questions?
