OK, what's missing on this list:
1. NAT router 2. Internet access through a limited account 3. SpywareBlaster
Make sure you lock the hosts file with Spybot S & D and there is not need to maintain the Hosts file as long as you keep it blocked and practice "safe surfing."
The original hosts file should read:
# Copyright (c) 1998 Microsoft Corp. # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP stack for Windows98 # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol. # For example: # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost (and that's it).
