now if you open that ....hosts.... file with notepad.exe
and, if it is like mine, there is only one line without an # sign, like:

# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

127.0.0.1 localhost
# Start of entries inserted by Spybot - Search & Destroy
# End of entries inserted by Spybot - Search & Destroy

some of my *.bak's had many lines for spybot, but this is how it looks now, and it is now read-only.

Add:
You don't have to delete anything. That is just what I did.

Yes I hawe the same. Should I write 2 lines as this exaple with this typo # in the beginning?

[meckano]

This part?
# Start of entries inserted by Spybot - Search & Destroy
# End of entries inserted by Spybot - Search & Destroy

No, does not matter.
anything after # is not used.
# is a marker for notes.

- Vulnerability in Java Web Start -
Oxygen3 24h-365d, por Panda Software (http://www.pandasoftware.es)

Madrid, March 24, 2005- Sun has reported a vulnerability in Java Web Start that could allow privilege elevation of a non-trusted application and indiscriminate permission to read, write and execute on the local system.

Java Web Start is a platform that allows developers to deploy complete applications to final users accessible from any browser.

By default Java applications run in a virtual environment, called "sandbox", to prevent security problems that indiscriminate access to system resources could imply. Read, write and command execution restrictions are imposed on a Java application to protect the system from possible attack.

The vulnerability detected allows the files to be designed to prevent "sandbox" restrictions and take control of the system. The problem affects Java Web Start distributed with J2SE from versions 1.4.2 to 1.4.2_06, for Windows, Solaris and Linux platforms.

To resolve the problem, users should update to J2SE version 1.4.07 or later, available from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html. As an additional preventive measure, until a vulnerable version is updated, we recommend disabling the execution of Java Web Start applications, removing support for JNLP files in browsers.

NOTE: The addresses above may not show up on your screen as single lines. This would prevent you from using the links to access the web pages. If this happens, just use the 'cut' and 'paste' options to join the pieces of the URL.
