Good morning Fabian,

Can you tell me if that built in hosts list is slowing down surfing? When I untick it, I had the impression that my surfing fast faster. But again, maybe it was only a impression.

It shouldn't have any noticeable impact. What does have an impact though is the File Guard that can delay surfing quite a bit as in its default settings it will scan all files that are being cached by your browser. You can temporarily switch the File Guard to only scan files that are being executed instead of scanning files after they have been written to disk and see if that makes a noticeable difference.

Many thanks for the tip Fabian.
