I know, would that not be great if Microsoft employed such things in their
Internet Explorer (IE) browser. I use Mozilla, but that doesn't help the
other people in the house that use Windows XP and the familiar IE browser
with it.

I am trying to decide if converting the HOSTS file to DNS records instead
may be a worthwhile (and cross platform) endeavor.
