Hmmm....

I reflashed again and when I clicked on Download, I'm getting this screen.



Any advice?

You must be the only person using this now :-)

I've just checked - uninstalled and reinstalled and everything seems to be OK here. Have you tried uninstall/reinstall?

You got it to work?

Really?

For me, I'm pretty sure www.mvps.org site is down on my end.

How did you do it?

Have it installed, but not updated the hosts file in ages.

Weird.

I'm now getting an "Unable to retrieve file. Check your internet connection !!!" red error of unhappiness.

I'll try from a different WiFi signal later and maybe that will do it.

Many sites are now loading up with a new bottom toolbar like on this page.

Is there any way to nuke it?

Last question.

Promise.

How can I put a site on a whitelist in my host file?

This place can detect that I'm blocking ads now and no longer works for me anymore.

If you're using hostfile blocking you cannot whitelist a page (unless it hosts its own ads) as the blocking is on ad-provider IPs. You'd need to temporarily modify your hostfile to visit the page and once you're done restore it.
