ProcessControl

• Choose which processes you wish to prevent from running, using their filename.

Hosts

• Control your hosts entries. Add list adds the entries, Block list routes the entries to 0.0.0.0 effectively blocking access to them.

• Example:

  "HostsEditor": {
  "Block": ["youtube.com", "google.com"],
  "Add": [
  	    {
  	    	"Domain": "test.com",
  	    	"IPAddress": "192.168.1.5",
  	    	"Comment": "comment is optional"
  	    },
  	    {
  	    	"Domain": "test2.com",
  	    	"IPAddress": "192.168.1.9",
  	    	"Comment": ""
