I can block them, but does not know if that is oke.

Who can help with this problem?

Hi

Download Hoster and reset your hosts file to
Microsoft original.

Then let MSAS protect the hosts file.

You don't need to block these entries if they point to "bad" sites.

If they point to good sites, they are a problem.

I agree with Plun's advice on this one--reset it to the default and let
Microsoft Antispyware monitor it for changes.
