HostsCK gives you the
ability to access and edit the Windows Host File enabling you to manage
the list of blocked/allowed websites easily.
The benefits of maintaining the Windows Hosts file provide immediate
results you can block banners, some ads, cookies, and complete websites.
Having control over these can potentially speed up your web-browsing as
well as provide you with a safer online browsing experience minus the
need to add more, sometimes questionable, plugins to your browser.
One crucial difference between a browser plugin and the Hosts file is
that it can protect your computer blocking programs from connecting to
their home site even when you are not actively browsing.
HostsCK is to designed to make the Hosts file easier to read by using
different font colors for the comments and the addresses being blocked
or allowed. It is customizable, so you can configure the color
combination that best suits you. It also permits you to remove any or
all comments easily. HostsCK also allows simple backup or disabling of
the Hosts file so you can revert to the default Microsoft file if
needed. You can also lock the Hosts file eliminating other programs from
deleting or modifying it. |
