Immunisation and Global Hosts.i

[Cranfield]

I have run Immunisation and all is well, but there are 154 Global Hosts remaining (15336 are protected).
Do I worry about this, or just ignore it.
I have XP, Google Chrome and Avast AntiVirus installed. I also use SpyHunter.
Any help would be appreciated.

Are you using the Spybot 1.6.2 version or the Spybot 2.1/2.2 version?

[Cranfield]

I am using the 1.6.2 version.

Ok,thanks.
I haven't used that version for a while,so please bear with me.I'm a bit shaky on remembering how to maneuver around it.
It might help to try immunizing just the hosts file again,to see if it works.
Open Spybot,click the Immunize button,once the check is done,scroll down to the bottom of the immunization screen.If Global(Hosts) is listed there,then rightclick somewhere in the Spybot window,select Deselect all,then checkmark only Global(Hosts),then click the Immunize button at the top,to see if it will immunize the hosts file.
If Spybot is unable to immunize the hosts file then,or if the 154 Global(hosts) entries are removed later on,please let me know.

Thanks for the advice, I have done exactly what you suggested and the 154 Global hosts still remain.

You're welcome.
I'm not familiar with it,but I found a page where it says Spyhunter has hosts file protection.If you have that on,then there are instructions listed here so that you can allow yourself or a program to make changes to your hosts file:
