The HOSTS file does the blocking. So, what exactly does KH Blocker do?
Is it some kind of proxy? Does it do essentially the same thing as
eDexter? I haven't found anything on your website that explains how KH
Blocker works.
I use eDexter to prevent the web browser from stalling on pages that
load banner ads or cookies from sites that are blocked by the HOSTS

Issue with 2.4 (and versions below) - Update

2006-12-29T11:42:34Z

I have discovered that any version below 2.4, including 2.4, have an
update 'issue'. If you keep getting an error balloon saying, 'couldn't
connect to the internet' even if you're on-line then you have this
problem.
What is it?
Well, KH Blocker gets the address to check for HOSTS file updates from
your system registry. Now, what happens is every time you check for

For your eyes only, a sneak-peak of KH Blocker's new Options window. I
have re-made the Options window because the current layout isn't good
enough to hold many options i am now adding into KH Blocker - it looks
