    Due to the heightened security in Windows Vista, you will need to use an editor with administrator privilege to do that.

    You can do so using Windows Notepad as follows:

    1. On your Windows Start menu, click on All Programs > Accessories.
    2. Right-click on "Notepad" and select "Run as administrator".
    3. Click "continue" when the user account control dialog box appears.
    4. Your Notepad application will start.
    5. Open up the hosts file in Notepad and make your changes before saving the file.

    Hope that helps.
