Press RESET immediately, All!
We find the annoying banner. Let's see where it is (address in symbolic form)
lies. In Netscape you can simply hover your mouse and make a copy location
to clipboard. Then a line like this is added to the /etc/hosts file (root is required):
127.0.0.1 host_address of_annoying_banner
That's all! You just need to restart the browser so that it no longer
showed pictures from this address. The browser will be on the same computer where
and works to search for banners...
For Windows users, the data must be entered into c:%WINHOSTDIR%hosts
(usually c:windowshosts). For half-and-half users, where is your tcpip directory?
there is a subdirectory etc, and the file you are looking for should be in it.
