Hi there.
I use Firefox 3.5.3, on Windows 7 with Spybot S&D, Avast, and Ad-Aware. I do regular scans, and despite the fact that I immunised/scanned/updated with Spybot, I'm getting a lot of 007guard.com ports open according to cports. I read here that changing your hosts file is a solution, I was wondering if this hot file is ok.
Thanks

# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
# Start of entries inserted by Spybot - Search & Destroy
127.0.0.1 www.007guard.com
127.0.0.1 007guard.com
LOTS of entries, causing me to go over the character limit
