Hi Mark,

Nice job. The MVPS hosts file was 'messing' things up. Delete that Hosts.zip from wherever you saved it.

You may have to put up with those ads since the Hosts.Zip doesn't work well with your system.

Have Windows Defender allow those changes. When I had you run Hoster.exe (not to be confused with Hosts.zip) it set your Hosts file back to default which was the simplest way to get rid of the Hosts.zip entries that were causing the problems with your links.

Are you all set now?
