HOSTS File for malware prevention

<< < (3/3)

sajman99:
Comodo has now went live with the "malware site blocking" feature of Comodo SecureDNS.

Announcement and site.

Perhaps it's all part of their attempt to rule the world. ;D  Just kidding--but it seems they have software and services for darn near everything.

Bamse:
Malwarebytes and Emsisofts site-blocking is based on hphosts which can be implemented as good old hosts file with daily updates, so not exactly futile. Hosts files are not better than content of course, so most suck in a security context.

Please, please give me a valid non-paranoid reason to turn off javascrip per default - or java :) Go YesScript https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4922/
