How do you turn it off?

Please excuse my ignorance, but if I were to use this to block sites, what needs to be done to remove the block?

Thanks!

How do you turn it off?
Authored by: SOX on Jun 22, '03 02:38:46PM

sudo open /etc/hosts

delete the last line of the file

reboot.
(could also use niload but thats too dangerous if youre a newbie)

as stupid as this hint is, it has saved me an amazing amount of wasted time. its just hard enough to turn off that it takes more than a simple impulse to do it.
