Once you do, click the "Open the Misc Tools section" button on the main
interface, then click the "Open hosts file manager" button in the
System Tools section. The directory path for your hosts file appears at
the top of the editor window.
Once you've located your hosts file, a quick and easy way to lock it
down is to make it a read-only file. Simply right-click the file and
choose Properties from the context menu. Click the read-only check box
at the bottom of the Properties window, then click OK. Remember that
you made it read-only, because in the future you may need to
temporarily allow changes for some program installs.
My Problem is that on my system at home using XP the Read Only box
doesn’t stay checked.
I did this at work on Win 2000 and the box stays checked. What’s up?
