HostsToggle Description

HostsToggle is a Hosts file management tool, created to make transitions between multiple Hosts settings a lot faster. HostsToggle adds a red button to the system tray, from which you can enable/disable, load, and backup your Hosts file. HostsToggle makes turning the Hosts file "on" and "off" as easy as clicking a button. The Hosts file can also be automatically restored after a specified amount of time - great if you keep forgetting to turn the Hosts back on! And finally, you can easily load alternate Hosts files (saved with the extension .tgl) so that instead of completely turning off the Hosts file, you can load one without the entries that are causing you trouble. HostsToggle comes with the Visual Basic 6 source code so you can see exactly what it's doing. You are free to modify the code to suit your needs. HostsToggle may also be freely distributed for non-profit. If you distribute a modified version of HostsToggle, you must include the modified source code. Main features: Easily "toggle" (temporarily rename) the Hosts file Load alternate Hosts file settings, files named *.TGL Backup your current Hosts file to a *.TGL file Maintains the read-only attribute on the Hosts file (read-only attribute is temporarily removed during editing) Optional timer to restore the Hosts file after a certain amount of time elapses Open-source freeware (compiled with Visual Basic 6.0 SP5 and compressed with UPX 1.20)
