Disabling an app does not affect local requests. Using the hosts file, you 
access the app as if it is an external request (via the host name defined 
in the hosts file), so disabling is enforced. When you instead switch to 
accessing the app locally (i.e., via "localhost" or 127.0.0.1), the 
"disabled" file is ignored and access is allowed.
