Interesting!  Does this work for just parts of a site though?  Like, using
the cnn.com example prior to your post in that thread,
'www.cnn.com/ads/adv*' instead of blocking the whole site 'www.cnn.com'? 
CNN is the kind of site one may only want to partially block (news is ok,
just block the ads subdirs).

Also, what is the 'mvps hosts file' you refer to in your post on that other
thread?
