Well, the fact I need to use it is a bit of a PITA and not enjoyable but I
digress.

The benefits of a HOSTS file far outweigh the PITA, IMO.

Yea, I know. Just saying it's a bit unfortunate that I have to in the first

would block sites that didn't warrant being blocked so now use MVPS as it
is less aggressive.
