It's about giving folks what they want & asked for (not what they didn't ask for).

* It's just like the app I wrote for hosts file manipulation http://start64.com/index.php?o...

It UNQUESTIONABLY gives folks:

1.) More speed (that you PAID FOR monthly that's being ROBBED by adbanners (that have had malicious code in them like MAD over time))

2.) More security (vs. known threats online in malicious script housing sites or those that serve up malware &/or botnets etc.)

3.) More reliability (vs. Kaminsky flaw redirected DNS servers OR rogue ones botnet masters use)

4.) & even more anonymity (vs. DNS request logs or for circumventing DNSBLs you may not agree with too) - which it does!

( & it does it with LESS MOVING PARTS COMPLEXITY/ROOM FOR BREAKDOWN, + with parts you already have (native hosts file, part of the IP stack running in ring 0/rpl 0/kernelmode vs. SLOWER usermode & laying on "more" slowing browsers yet more in excessive messagepassing redundant b.s. like "almost all ads blocked" crippled by default & SOULED-OUT or like Ghostery (same deal))

That's all!

* I consider it doing RIGHT by my fellow human beings, for those that elect to choose to try & use it... I had the means to create it, & out the door she went to the masses in mid 2012 (I had it ready as far back as 2003 in 3 apps, consolidated it into 1 in 2004 but, I held off, only due to webmasters... but, then ads starting showing malicious code? No more... I released it).

APK

P.S.=> By the by: Again - You're welcome (what I do, just works)... apk

You're MORE THAN WELCOME to disprove 17 enumerated points here http://start64.com/index.php?o...

* :)

(Good luck - you'll NEED it... lol, more like a miracle, because you're fellow "naysayers" aren't faring too well on ANY front, especially those of mathematics, operating system subsystems & speed gains, + more here -> http://science.slashdot.org/co... AND here too http://science.slashdot.org/co... )

Keep "thinking inside the box" & depending SOLELY on faulty systems like DNS (kaminsky flaw anyone? Redirect poisoning like MAD, & 99% of ISPs aren't patched vs. it no less...), or more moving parts complexity & usermode slowness (e.g. almost all ads blocked crippled by default layering on MORE on browsers, slowing them up in messagepassing overheads in usermode) or faultiness (windows own local dns clientside cache faults with larger hosts files & yes, in slow usermode too)... vs. myself using a FAR FASTER kernelmode based solution (tcpip.sys/IP stack & the diskcaching kernelmode subsystem vs. SLOWER usermode dns clientside faulty cache in Windows)..

APK

P.S.=> So, let's see you disprove EVERY SINGLE ONE of those 17 points I have enumerated in the link to my program... ok? apk

It's slower, period (which you concede): So, there's no question of what I said: It's part of the why of WHY I wrote my app (does more, with less, by far) -> http://start64.com/index.php?o...

Why do things in ring 0/rpl 0/kernelmode vs. ring 3/rpl 3/usermode? Speed... heck, that's why I'd do it there too - if you're NOT?? Then, you're obviously NOT interested in maximum performance.

APK

P.S.=> Anyhow, these trolls always *TRY* to "give me guff" & by ac posts... why bother? All they DO is make ME look GOOD & themselves?? Well... lol, "not so good"... apk

P.S.=> So - How to build a custom hosts file that keeps those favorites sites of yours @ the TOP of your hosts file (so it has speed, even if you have a large hosts file that makes the Windows faulty slower usermode dns clientside cache flake out since it's faulty with relatively larger hosts files - do the math, binary search type, which makes up for indexing up to ~ 3++ million hosts entries), for added speed (hardcodes = faster than remote dns lookup, along with the fact they can be EASILY dns redirect poisoned, ala the Kaminsky bug & MOST ISP level dns are unpatched vs. it, like 99%), added security (vs. known servers of malware, malicious script, or botnet C&C Servers etc.), added reliability (vs. downed or redirect poisoned DNS servers, including rogue/bogus DNS servers malware makers & botnet herders use), & even added anonymity (vs. dns request logs OR dnsbls)?

Hosts do more w/ less (1 file) @ a faster level (ring 0) vs redundant browser addons (slowing up slower ring 3 browsers) via filtering 4 the IP stack (coded in C, loads w/ OS, & 1st net resolver queried w\ 45++ yrs.of optimization):

APK Hosts File Engine 9.0++ 32/64-bit:

http://start64.com/index.php?o...

(Details of hosts' benefits enumerated in link)

Summary:

---

A. ) Hosts do more than AdBlock ("souled-out" 2 Google/Crippled by default) + Ghostery (Advertiser owned) - "Fox guards henhouse", or Request Policy -> http://yro.slashdot.org/commen...

B. ) Hosts add reliability vs. downed or redirected DNS + secure vs. known malicious domains too -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comme... w/ less added "moving parts" complexity + room 4 breakdown,

C. ) Hosts files yield more speed (blocks ads & hardcodes fav sites - faster than remote DNS), security (vs. malicious domains serving mal-content + block spam/phish), reliability (vs. downed or Kaminsky redirect vulnerable DNS, 99% = unpatched vs. it & worst @ ISP level + weak vs FastFlux + DynDNS botnets), & anonymity (vs. dns request logs + DNSBL's).

---

* Addons are more complex + slowup browsers in message passing (use a few concurrently & see) - Addons slowdown SLOWER usermode browsers layering on MORE: I work w/ what you have in kernelmode, via hosts (A tightly integrated PART of the IP stack itself),

APK

P.S.=> Merely blocking out adbanners saves you, on average, up to 40% of the mass downloaded + processed per website page you visit - bandwidth YOU PAID FOR MONTHLY out-of-pocket is what they steal, so... it's one hell of a start!

Downmods vs. last I posted this: Yea, right - STFU you anonymous little worm. Can't prove my points wrong, now can you? Nope -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme...

You, like redmancometh, are full of it. Period. Show me rules that state I can't post here - go for it. I'll be MORE than happy to abide by them, especially IF the ownership here says so. I obey rules, YOU & "your kind" (the anonymous "not men" of the world, lol) do not.

Hence, YOUR cowardly little threats. Know what they mean to me, pusscake? Zero... where I am from, we EAT worms like you alive, because of your pussy ways (like your ac posts, downmodding my posts to *try* "hide them", & yet NEVER DISPROVING MY POINTS... that's all I ever asked, with GOOD reason here (read it, & underestand it you useless punk -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme... [slashdot.org] )

APK

P.S.=> Wonder WHY folks are leaving here? You tried to force that javascript ridden risky broken hunk of CRAP 'beta' down our throats (which yes, hosts beat too, I have every RIGHT to control what comes into MY HOME into MY PC over MY NETWORK CONNECTION, not /. or anybody else shit for brains) -> http://news.slashdot.org/comme...

Unlike them? I am doing the RIGHT things, being of service to others, giving them more speed, security, reliability, & even anonymity here for FREE -> http://start64.com/index.php?o...

You did bettetr? Show me. Prove me wrong... lol, you? Your "illustrious ilk" (not, cowards) clearly, can't.. & YOU KNOW IT, I know it, anyone reading does.

Want to make threats? Go for it... keep it up. I spoke to geek.net's BOSSES long ago on this, Dice legal, & a nice young lady named Karen about ALL of this happening... SHE never told me NOT to post here, & she has clout - you, ac punk? Do not, & you are NOT the owner here either... go away weasel - you & a 1,000 LIKE YOU are what I have blown away my ENTIRE LIFE repeatedly (& there's no question I have to you before, hence your cowardly little ac threats & such)... apk

Plus HOW & WHY: Turn off the usermode local dnscache client service & use faster kernelmode services instead (with benefits in added speed, security, reliability, & even anonymity as a result) -> http://yro.slashdot.org/commen...

(Just like how custom hosts files can beat the redirect NOBODY asked for here - see termination of that link in its 'p.s.' section... & a LOT more in added speed, security, reliability, + even anonymity (to an extent only on the latter, but FAR MORE ontop of those things too... saving CPU cycles WASTED on a faulty service, as well as RAM, & other forms of I/O too, by cutting off a SLOWER usermode service & doing BETTER using 2 kernelmode FAR FASTER subsystems via hosts (OS diskcaching kernelmode subsystem + IP stack instead & a GOOD solid logical layout in the hosts file itself to take maximum advantage of them both - offsetting loss of indexing (wish MS would FIX their usermode dnscache clientside service actually... I've noted it to them YEARS ago, squat was done))

APK

P.S.=> LOL, somehow, I find that "intended pun" in my subject-line above, VERY satisfying to have uttered... don't know why: I don't play this game, but I DO have a way around it for those interested, + a lot more to offer as well enumerated here (especially vs. INFERIOR "So-called 'solutions'" like Adblock & Ghostery the 2 foxes in the henhouse 'souled-out' to advertisers, the folks they initially WERE against afaik, + even shoring up DNS' faults in redirection, etc.) -> http://start64.com/index.php?o...
