I'm running Spybot 2.7.65.0 on Windows 7 Home SP1. Spybot's immunisation function removed all the entries I added to the hosts file, which were outside the Spybot block of entries. Is there any way to stop this happening?

No, I don't believe there is. You could ask about it on the contact form here:

Spybot usually makes a backup of the hosts file after immunizing. You should see them in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc as .backup files. You might be able to recover the sites you had added to your hosts file that way.
