Can this be done with SUSE 10? I just tried that and it wouldn't let me. I know that on Windows, you can assign 127.0.0.1 to the name of any domain you want to block and use that for as many domains as you want. With SUSE, it allows this number to be used only once. |

Answering my own question
To block unwanted ads in SuSE 10.0:
System > File Manager > File Manager Super User Mode
Go to /etc and there should be a file called, Hosts.
Right click on that and chose "Open With" and chose what ever text editor you like.
Enter 127.0.0.1 hit Tab key and paste the offending website's address there.
Save and then close it.
Refresh the page and kiss the ad goodbye! (Sometimes you might have to clear your browser cache).
127.0.0.1 can't be beat!
