how do i uninstall the supertrick?

[ninjamonkey]

is there a way?

[[B][O][T]]

In Windows XP

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc and delete the HOSTS file

BOT

[Ariel_001]

open the "hosts" and delete the enterys there.

the "hosts" file is located in your %windir% forder in win9x or %windir%\drivers\etc forder

[hungrylilboy]

just dont delete the entire file or the first host number. Else ur computer wont work properly!

[Entity101]

You can delete the entire file too. That doesn't cause any problems.

[ninjamonkey]

so the supertrick created the hosts file? i can safely delete the whole thing?
were there any entries in the folder before the supertrick was applied?

[Rad Ed]

when u find the proper hosts file you can delete the thing and its gone. Trust me I did it yesterday for the first time. I freaked out when all the ads on websites where not there. So first I saved the file to a floppy, then i deleted it. My comp has not screwed up yet.

[ninjamonkey]

the proper file? theres more than one?
you deleted the whole folder?

how do i uninstall the supertrick?
just open tthe host file with notepad(the host file is the one without an extension)
and delete everything below 127.0.0.1 localhost and save it and your done

The supertrick sites that are included in any kazaa lite versions includes sites that
blocks kazaa's adwares inside the program.
like the "web" startup page or upgrade checking site that the program
use to (maybe still) connect, to see if your using an updated version.

...and Plus the supertrick includes other unrelated advertising sites.
which are used to block banners from a website.



if you only want sites that just blocks kazaa's adware sites, here:
(i've compiled these sites that came from different kazaa lite versions
so mad props for those people who discovered those sites)

the 2.4.? came from the original kazaa lite K++ and the 2.6.? came from clean kazaa, i think...im not very sure.
but, i'm pretty sure that those sites are important to kazaa media desktop
because when i tryed to installed the KMD program (yes the ones with adwares)
it automatically made them all a comment (#).

..and if you gus have other KMD related ad sites hey please post it. thanks ;)

[ninjamonkey]

so, could you put the address of ads in your hosts file and then just put you local hoast ip before it and it will always say page unavailable for that ad? or will it block the whole page with the ad on it?
how do i get the address of the ads i see?

[ninjamonkey]

how do you make an entry to redirect a site to another?

example:

38.25.63.10 x.acme.com
[to here]<--[from here ]

you need the ip to redirect something in this case x.acme.com to 38.25.63.10



i dont think you can put a website inplace for the ip like:
www.test.com x.acme.com

You can redirect to any site you want, instead of 127.0.0.1, put the IP of another site - that way another site will come up,

Or run eDexter and itll replace the error messages with a image of your choice

Goto http://remember.mine.nu/ a host file with over 18000 ads servers etc.

Really speeds up browsing.

Goto http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm#Rename for a batch which will rename the host file when you want. Turn on/off
