I'm using the file /etc/hosts to stop my Intel Atom notebook from connecting to selected internet hosts.
I'm doing this to help block spyware, pop-up traps, etc. For more details and a comprehensive list of domains that are blocked see the following link:

Can someone tell me if domain names pre-fixed with either 0.0.0.0 or 127.0.0.1 are blocked equally effectively with Slitaz5 ? The aforementioned link states that some systems wont recognize 0.0.0.0
Is this the case for Slitaz5 ?
