Solve : Hosts file has a blind spot??

1.	Solve : Hosts file has a blind spot??
Answer» When a website is added to the host file, the website can still be accessed as LONG as a search engine is used as in intermediary. Why is this? Is there any way to prevent this?Have you followed these steps properly: http://allthingsmarked.com/2006/08/28/howto-block-websites-using-the-hosts-file/ It works perfectly fine for me... EVEN through search engines. Do remember to add entries both with and without the "www" prefix: Code: [SELECT]127.0.0.1 www.facebook.com 127.0.0.1 facebook.comOf course the SITE can still be viewed through a web-based proxy engine (such as http://www.zend2.com) or a cached version in a search engine.Oh, I forgot about that. I was wondering why I had entries that had www. and no www... Thanks for the REMINDER!
