The MVPS HOSTS update Mailing List has been discontinued

Regretfully I can no longer accept any more subscribers to the MVPS HOSTS file update mailing list. The response has far exceeded my expectations and the list has out-grown the available software for providing a timely update.

I have been researching for a viable (freeware) solution ... however there doesn't seem to be any that meets my needs. As for those that have previously subscribed I will retain your email address for a short time in the event a solution is found ... (which I doubt) then I will simply delete all the existing addresses.

I'd like to thank everyone that has participated in the Mailing list. I will continue to post the update notices on my site and also here on my blog.
