[WITHDRAWN]NoScript LastHit and Hitcounters for List purging

[Thrawn]

I will mention that *to my knowledge*, ABP does not actually block the advertising site from loading; it merely prevents it from being displayed. (I could be mistaken.)

Well, we have discussed the topic before.

While hosts file make perfect sense for some purposes, it fails if you have to distinguish within the same site.

The listed sites are all either evil or useless.

I also think it could be pain to maintain it, solving some sidee ffect due refused connection.

There are many free services that offer Hosts files updated regularly.
As said, we are going off-topic here. If you wish to discuss use of Hosts file, you are free to start a new topic in Forum Extras > Security.
Or search this forum for HOSTS, and see if one of those threads is suitable.
This one cites the service I personally use. (That is not an official endorsement, of course.) It mentions what adjustments are recommended to the file provided by these services.

Only if you wish to pursue it further. This thread, though, is complete.

Haha, when I was trying to post last post with quoting you, I was catched by AS filter.
When I have removed your text, AS filter was satisfied.

I shall promptly ban myself for spamming.

No doubts, my point was hosts does not help in hiding on site element. I know in this case it is not about security or performance.
