Well, it's, like, advice, innit? All I'm saying is that in future, EVERY
time you open a HTML file on your computer ensure you do so with Opera or
IE6, NOT Firefox, otherwise WinMX will try to modify your HOSTS file, or
something. Alternatively, keep launching Firefox in which case it'll modify
your HOSTS file if you're using WinMX, which wouldn't happen if you stopped
using Firefox and just used Opera or IE6. Hell; you could always stop using
WinMX and use whatever browser you wanted, with none of that HOSTS-modifying
stuff. It all sounds daft to me, but that's life.
