  1. Adding a Host Name to IIS's Site Bindings Forms Prevents Browsers Locating the Website


    I have just tried serving my Windows 11 based Website using IIS.If I leave the Host Name blank in the Site Bindings form I can connect my Firefox browser to my website using the address "localhost:81"If I add a Host Name, say "www.WithymeadTest.org" my browser cannot find it despite the fact that I have set up the Hosts file on my PC as follows:- 127.0.0.1:81 www.WithymeadTest.org # Local Withymead Website Can anyone explain what I am doing wrong I'm new to IIS.

    :)

    List website to block in host file

    So , recent I learn that I can block the ads on my pc if I put the ip address of that ads in the host file to go on 127.0.0.1, well I did not escape from all ads but I am not rely only on browser addons(take some work on cpu), also I like host idea because I can control it and block before enter on pc, not on browser, I put the list from here:
    http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
    now I see another list who seems good too:
    http://www.malwaredomainlist.com/hostslist/hosts.txt

    I know this lists are not forever,I must check periodical for changes, but I want to know if are another, maybe, best list(updated periodical).

    Look like the one from malwaredomainlist.com it is to aggressive, even yahoo messenger will not connect, so I will stay with http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt for now, maybe athers will post their finds.
