December 18, 2011 HOSTS file.
This is a combination of 9 up-to-date(as of this moment) lists that block ads and sites with malwares(viruses, trojans, worms etc.)
LISTS USED -
Code:
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.zip
http://hphosts.gt500.org/hosts.zip
http://updates.it-mate.co.uk/updates.asp
http://hosts-file.net/ad_servers.asp
http://pgl.yoyo.org/as/serverlist.php?hostformat=hosts&showintro=1&mimetype=plaintext
http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/hosts
http://support.it-mate.co.uk/downloads/HOSTS.txt
http://hostsfile.mine.nu/Hosts
http://www.securemecca.com/Downloads/hosts.txt
The file is optimized, sorted & is in 0.0.0.0 format.
MAKE SURE YOU COPY THE ENTIRE FILE TO /etc/hosts using root or sudo.
_DO NOT_ REPLACE THE FIRST TWO LINES IN YOUR HOSTS FILE-
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 YOUR HOST NAME GOES HERE
If you already have blocking entries, add this list to the bottom of your hosts file.

Side note- You might want to install an ad-blocking extension in your browser so you don't see the annoying "page not found" error where ads were before.
