&lt;p&gt;Sure you can add the entries you see mentioned here ... they will also be added to the next HOSTS update (due soon)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When you mention sites in your articles should we put them in the Hosts file if they aren&amp;#39;t there? For instance I didn&amp;#39;t find uxfl.co.cc but did find kiano.....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes settings.sxx is (newly) created ... I&amp;#39;m guessing that Adobe Flash creates that file when it can not access/write to the settings.sol file. I made the settings.sxx Read only also.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A couple hours after making settings.sol read-only, there is a new file called settings.sxx and a new subfolder, presumably containing third-party flash cookie info.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[sigh]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i wonder what will happen if I make the folder containing settings.sol read-only?&lt;/p&gt;
