MVPS updated 05-01-11

Info is correct I just updated it Hazel

25

You would think they would get the date right on their own page!!

EDIT..

Just updated it from zip on MVPS hosts page and it shows in system32 as having the date of 30th March.

I did mine via Hostman updater and it shows 05/01/11. So, something is out of kilter

Yes, something weird is going on. The latest update date shown on their site is 03-30-11, but according to HostsMan, it's been updated twice since then, most recently on 05-01-11. Strange.

An explanation at last... they have moved servers

I don't use Hostman but you will have to edit your source there to get updates from the new server.

Hostman is already using the new server. I have had updates on the 30th and on the 5th but both were the same number of sites so I guess it was the same definitions or just some minor adjustment

Did you see the comment made by some guy ...

What happened? Did you block the old server with a host-file ;-)

Love it.

Have you changed your server settings in HostsMan? I have not, yet I still received the updates on those two days.

MVPS updated 05-09-11. It looks "real" this time since the number of total hosts increased dramatically.
