Kicest Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Hi, I tried to convince my parents to change the Burn4Free software crap but there's now way to change their mind. Burn4Free is a small burning program but it comes with ads and, what's worst it displays ads. I tried to block the ads via the host file but some ads are still showing. Any more ideas? Thanks. ....and this is what i tried: 127.0.0.1 update.burn4free.com 127.0.0.1 burn4free.com 127.0.0.1 iredirect.burn4free.com 127.0.0.1 static.cb-content.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download link for Burnaware Portable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank for your suggestion, I will try that. @jordan4x . Already tried that (using the build in Windows 7 Firewall) and it doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
