Yes I know. But over the years this is how it was supposed to be named.
You will find at many sites the uppercase use is how it is suggested to be
done. I am saying HOSTS one because that is how Microsoft named it when it
existed in Windows 95\98\ME and two to avoid any issue that this might be a
result of. I suspect it doesn't make a difference but I'd rather avoid the
issue if it exists.
