  • Ultimate.Hosts.Blacklist

    The Ultimate Unified Hosts file for protecting your network, computer, smartphones and Wi-Fi devices against millions of bad web sites. Protect your children and family from gaining access to bad web sites and protect your devices and pc from being infected with Malware or Ransomware.

    • Please visit this site >> https://github.com/Ultimate-Hosts-Blacklist/Ultimate.Hosts.Blacklist & you will see a section called RAW FILE SOURCES. I have downloaded the hosts which says Unix/Linux. So I click on that same link everyday or every week & replace the /etc/hosts file using the Terminal ? The problem is the file is named hosts which I can understand is make it same as the hosts file under Linux. Since there is no version number mentioned as part of the filename its quite difficult to know if a new version is available or not.
