How to block sites in Win XP?

win xp drivers


Can anyone teach me how to block sites by using Hosts File in Win XP? I have WiMAX connection. The information about my net connect is the following:

Device Type : Canopy Lite - 5.7GHz - Subscriber Module - 0a-00-3e-fa-81-fc
Software Version : CANOPY 8.1.5 SM-DES
Software BOOT Version : CANOPYBOOT 1.0
Board Type : P10
FPGA Version : 111306
PLD Version : 9
Uptime : 06:28:09
System Time : 21:49:42 01/12/2001
Ethernet Interface : 100Base-TX Full Duplex
Antenna Polarization : Vertical

Please note that I have tried this way to block the sites. I went to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
There was a file “hosts”, I right clicked on that and selected open or ‘open with’. From that window, I selected Notepad. I then I just added the IP address I wanted to block, after saving when I checked it in EI, it was not blocked.




where to find samsung yp-p2 device driver for win/xp?

Friday 27 June 2008 @ 12:44 pm
win xp drivers


After I plugged in the USB cable for new yp-p2 player, winn/xp can not recongnised this device as no drvice driver can be found.
I’ve downloaded that from their web, but that is only the apllication to do the files transfer between your PC and the P2 device. My problem is win/xp does not recognise my P2 and always looking for the device driver for it.
I’m using win/sp SP2 with Window Media player 11, but it still doesn’t recognize my P2. I’ve connected Sansa to this machine as MPT device. May be that caused the problem. But I do not know how to fix it.

I want to install win media centre on pc running xp?

Wednesday 25 June 2008 @ 9:44 pm
win xp drivers


Basically I have the new win media centre which i would like on my pc which uses windows xp. When I install media centre I know I will have to re-install drivers etc for everything but is it possible to keep win xp on pc as well and have the choice at boot?
This could help me transfer everything across and then un-install xp after couple of weeks.
Any ideas or comments would be really helpful……cheers!
