I have a program to add and remove sites from the HOST file. So, sorta like a site blocker. I kinda wish I had a chicken in a police outfit giving the stop! hand sign and name it cock blocker :P anyways... To read what sites/ip's are blocked I'm just reading the HOST file in a read only textbox. I was wanting to know if I can read everything but the crud at the top of the file(Describing how to edit the HOST file manually). How could I do that? Here is my code I'm using to read the HOST file:
Any suggestions?Code:Dim ReadItem As String = String.Empty IO.File.Exists("c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts") ReadItem = IO.File.ReadAllText("c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts") TextBox1.Text = ReadItem TextBox1.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Both TextBox1.WordWrap = False
