[MOD] ADBlock (advertisement)

Hi guys,

this is my first post in Nexus S section. Wildfire is my previous device.

This is an ADblock file that will block almost all annoying advertisement (except those app made by Chinese from China [it do block, but not all]) in your app and browser as well.

Advantages
Free at all, does not use system service, update is not required.

Attachments
HOST.zip: Updated on June 2011
HOST1.zip: Updated on June 2010 (try this one if the first one doesn't block some of your app ads.)

Instruction:
1. Unzip the file and you will get a file named HOSTS.
2. Copy and paste the HOSTS via root explorer to system/etc.
3. Reboot system, and open an app with advertisement and you will see the advertisement is blocked.

Thanks for viewing.

Please hit a "Thanks" if you like it!

Whats the difference from just using Adfree on the market, it also is able to check for updates daily.

This script blocked ads from 21k site. It is like windows, they built in the feature but lack of ad block file.

I checked root tools from market, it doesn't block much of the site. It is paid app..

Adfree use service, this doesnt. If you use task killer, it wont kill.
