AFAIK, BoB, there are no duplications although hostess is a great little HOSTS
tweak. I would use it as is. AdShield and HOSTS *play well* together.

Interested in test-driving AdShield I'll put up a URL were you can still get a
freeware version - ah what the hey, here it is:

Get 'em while they're hot - the freeware links are going fast.
