With a bunch of addresses below it. Select that entire list, and hit Ctrl + C to copy all of it. Now, go back to the hosts file, and click right below "127.0.0.1 localhost". Hit Ctrl + V to paste the addresses. Add "127.0.0.1 a.tribalfusion.com" to the list. Once you're done, hit "Save."
You have to understand that some of us are running web servers on our computers
. In that case, you should route it to a non-routeable address, such as 255.255.255.255.

Wow. Nice work i must say.
Less ads i guess... TNT are really going too far this time. Guess we have to do it ourselves.
However, is it counted as cheating? Will we get frozen for this ?
Thanks
And no, this is definately not considered cheating. TNT have no way of finding out that you are blocking the ads. If I were you though, I wouldn't tell the Neoboards that you block the ads, or mention it on the site at all, since TNT are giving warnings to users that tell others how to block the ads. But otherwise, they have no way of konwing that you block the ads.
Besides, even the great Adam himself told us at PPT that we should use Firefox to not show the ads
I'm serious
Not to scare anyone, but it is POSSIBLE for neopets to track ads. The ads could be in an iframe that is at
http://www.neopets.com/someadtrackingpage.phtml. Whenever you access that page, the ads in table 'personal' could be increased, and that could be compared to the number of pages visited. Of course, Neopets probably would never do this, as it would result in mass freezing, and would decrease their rank in sites to advertise in
