Hostsman 2.1

Today i received a email from the developer of hostman stating they have implemented the feature i suggested of selecting multiple host files for updates rather then single ones. For those of you interested it can be found here.

i tried installing it but it gave me a weird error saying 12/30/1899 was not a valid time or date i have know idea what it is talking about!?

Could this be the true beginning of Y2K. :o

Y2K???????

how do i fixed it so i can use the program?

I got a similar message i then cancelled that installation and deleted the folder in which hostsman was installed(you should have already uninstalled) along with the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\abelhadigital.com there maybe also be one in C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\. Then reinstall and it should work.

I was joking. :D Sounds like a strange error to me. I would report it to the hostman people.

Edit:

Nevermind englishmen knows how to fix it.

I have already reported it :D

can anyone tell me where my hosts file is?

nvm i found out

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

Nvm you found it :lol:

what are th hosts files?

I also tried what you said but i could not find that folder or anything else. I also tried installing it again and it did not work. :(

Wikipedia Hosts file page

The folders C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\abelhadigital.com & C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\abelhadigital.com are hidden. I'm assuming you found the hostsman installation folder and deleted it?

i don't have the Application Data file.

I even searched my computer for it but could not find it...

What application file?

yuo said up topthat i had to go into C;doc and setting then all users then into a application folder i don't ahve any application folder in the all user folder or any other user?

Its hidden as i said open a folder click "tools", "Folder options", "View" under advanced settings you will see "Hidden files and folders" click show hidden files and folders. Then repeat what i said and reinstall hostsman.

thanks for your time and help i was just being an idiot lol.

Thanks again

No problem, im assuming its working now then?

yup. :)

Howdy-

This ? may be for englishmen. Does HostMan have to be running i.e. in the notification tray? Since it's basically just a file, I don't let it run because the 4% CPU it needs sometime bogs down my ancient, decrepit computer. I'm guessing it's there to start faster if you want to modify the file.

Definite question for englishmen- Did you ever get your modem working OK?

Whenever I need a laugh I play that Underground Song although I did need to look up the definition of w**nker :o

Thanks
