a slight side-note from the mvps.org site:

"There was a slight error in the 10-24 update, this has been corrected
with the 10-25 update. If you downloaded the 10-24 update, simply
download the 10-25 update. In HijackThis the entry shows up as:
O1 - Hosts: [Fordale Investment][Adware.Dware][Restricted Zone site]"

Apparently not. The first few lines in my Hosts file are:
# Ad Hosts last update on 10/11/2003 11:50PM
# Ad Hosts last verified by hpguru on 09/13/2003
# http://asp.flaaten.dk/proxo/
One striking difference is my file will list multiple IP's for the same
domain whereas MVPS will list the single domain name.
