I have already entered a lot of ip's & links in the "hosts" file to block advertising pop-ups in Win.XP, after opening the "hosts" file by using the "Notepad" program & saved it. Now, when I try to add more ip's & links in the "hosts" file it doesn't get saved & another text file is created with the same name. I wonder how did it get saved in the first instace. What do I need to do, to add more ip's & links in the "hosts" file & save it too ?
I am also not able to rename or delete the "hosts" file so that I can create another file with the same name & edit it. And as a "hosts" file is already present I can't create another file with the same name.
I have posted this question several times but no one seems to have the solution.
I beg, if you have the solution please help & for God's sake don't bluff if you don't know the right solution.
