Hosts files, although were a great answer for a quick fix, are not the long term way to go.  Large hosts files increase your CPU usage, and use more resources on your computer.  They also have much slower reconnection times, especially if you don\'t have them updated.  You must continue to update these regularly due to changes in the peer cache IPs.  Messing with system files all the time to forever make changes to your hosts file is a pain, and causes many users connection problems.  You also have to run additional programs to block the RIAA, which further uses your resources and slows down your computer even more, plus you have to weed through search results and use word filters to get rid of fake files and find real files.
