Disable ads from windows live messenger Beta or Wave 4

Go to System32\Driver\etc and take full control of Hosts file.
Now add the following line in it and save it.

127.0.0.1 rad.msn.com

That’s it.

Thanks for this; bet many would want to do this first :D

this is very usefull and simple indeed..
Thank you very much..

Great tip. :idea:

So simple and obvious that you woulda thunk we all woulda automatically thunk it! :hmm:

And it serves a purpose outside of Messenger...

I often see (and am annoyed by) ads & popups from this same URL when I am checking for info on MS Tech and similar MS sites.

Now I can brush them aside.

Thanks. :happy:

Very useful and popular tip !!! and works with almost every version of Live Messenger.
