16950 2001-08-14 03:46:00 Anyone know how to change the search order from DNS->HOSTS file to HOSTS file->DNS for DNS resolving?

Cheers

Just a guess, but if you've been adding hosts to it while on like, eg to block ads, then you will need to disconnect, and possibly restart, to get the entries to take effect.
