Hosts file filtering

Okay kiddo, do you know what a host is? It's like a house on the internet where people live. Sometimes, some people want to come inside your house and that's not good.

So, your computer has a file called 'hosts'. This file is like a list of all the houses you know about on the internet. But sometimes, some houses on this list need to be blocked because some bad people live there.

So, what hosts file filtering does is it helps you to block some of these bad houses. It works by using a special code to tell your computer not to visit these bad houses. This way, your computer will not go to those bad house websites, and you will be safe from any harm they can cause.

It's like building a wall around your house to keep burglars out. But in this case, we're building a wall around your computer to keep bad websites out. Isn't that awesome?!
