It may be a good idea to start a new thead for this specific problem. Also add as much info as you can. Type of firewall if any, AV software. Are you on Broadband or dialup. there is almost always some activity on BB connections even if you are not using it for any reason. Does your PC display any other problems? Do you run Adware or spyware checkers? Is there anything showing up in Task Manager that is suspicious? jeffguo, if you post any further info in this thread you may get more replies. http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...ad.php?t=15083 |

I don't post here often, so I hope nobody minds me adding my input to this topic. :)
I'm sure some of you may be familiar with the strategy of blocking various ad/spyware/etc sites in the Hosts file, but the more experienced computer users are probably also aware of its limitations [if a site has stuff on various subdomains you have to have an entry for each subdomain]. DNSKong gives you a bit more flexibility on DNS-based site blocking. Although it doesn't offer wildcard functionality, in the sense of being able to replace characters with a *, it does let you put in just 1 [or more] "words" [I forget the correct term] of a url. For example, you could have an entry like spammysoftware & it would block anything like ads.spammysoftware.com, banners.spammysoftware.net etc, but wouldn't block banners.spammysoftware1.com. It's not ideal, but it's considerably better than the Hosts file method. A few things I should mention about it though:
