Doh, and I just entered approx 650 advert/annoying partial URLs and IPs :) Actually all I did was to paste/add the lines to my /etc/hosts file in the format: 127.0.0.0 bogus.advert.url and they no longer get loaded up here. I can't think why I didnt suss this out earlier, although being up half the night prob didn't help ;-) Thanks anyway for the replies peeps :) -- magnet Registered Linux User: 281659 Registered machines: 163839,163840,163841,163842,163843,163844 6xAthlon 1.2GHz all running some flavour of Mandrake.
