This site may have what you want: http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm

Personally, I don't use that.
May I suggest that you download Spybot serch and destroy available here.:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html

In addition to finding and deleting scumware, you can make it resident to protect you and it has its own hosts file. To make it resident click on mode, advanced, tools, resident. Check the two boxes available. Then click on Hosts file, click on use host file.

Read the documentation provided.

Downside: resident consumes about 5 megs of ram, so I guess doing this depends on how much ram is in your machine.

I assume you have antivirus and a firewall installed. If you are on DSL or Cable, do not depend on the firewall in XP.

Another list of bad sites is here:

CWS domains

As the name suggests, this one lists CoolWebSearch domains, and includes many of those you've already discovered.

thanks... found IE-Spyad to restrict my IE from going to bad sites.

heir is my list of bad sites and IP to go with it
