What is the Hosts file, and how does it stop ads and tracking?
The "Hosts" file in Windows and other operating systems is used to associate host names with IP addresses. Host names are the www.yahoo.com addresses that you see every day. IP addresses are numbers that mean the same thing as the www words - the computers use the numbers to actually find the sites, but we have words like www.yahoo.com so humans do not need to remember the long strings of numbers when they want to visit a site.
For instance, the host name for Yahoo! is www.yahoo.com, while its IP address is 204.

- HostsMan Portable 4.0.84 Beta
- License: Freeware

HostsMan has a minimal interface that relies on three different options, disabling/enabling HOSTS, updating the file with online versions and editing it manually. The update process is probably what makes the whole app so special. You get the chance to download an online HOSTS file that includes lots of listings, thus doing the aforementioned tasks a lot easier. On the other hand, editing the file manually might need some computer knowledge for those of you who haven't worked with hosts before, so it's better to read the attached documents before starting changing things. The update feature worked pretty smooth during our test and, what's more, it downloaded a HOSTS file with tons of entries which instantly turned the Internet into a safer place.
