If you have followed my advice and installed the MVPS HOSTS file on your system, you need to know that updates become available on a fairly regular basis, and that you have to go out and get the updated file and install it yourself. Once you understand the process, it shouldn't take you more than 10 minutes.
The important thing is that the updates will help you block the latest bad guys. I urge you to bookmark the HOSTS news web site, http://msmvps.com/blogs/hostsnews/default.aspx and to visit it once a week or so, looking out for the latest update. As we have seen and discussed herein, some of the bad guys just rename their programs, for example "2009 bad guy" is probably being renamed "2010 bad guy", and the updated HOSTS file will catch this.
There is an update available today. Go get it!
