Hi.

I recently downloaded hosts file from mvps. I've noticed that it restricts some features of myspace.

Could someone please help me to change the hosts file to allow myspace videos to play?

Thanks.

You could start by going to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\etc\HOSTS and double clicking on it and when it asks "Open with" choose Notepad. Then delete either anything related to myspace, or just delete all of it and re-create your hosts file but without myspace entries.
