MysteryFCM Posted August 13, 2009 ID:109529 Share Posted August 13, 2009 These are F/P's and should've been removed when Hostsman sync'd with hpHosts;www.google.co.kr=127.0.0.1www.google.com.tr=127.0.0.1google.co.kr=127.0.0.1The rest aren't F/P's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
