vitorio Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Some time you need to block IP addresses of software to prevent them to communicate to their home site. On way to do this is writing the address names in the hosts windows file to block them. In my case I usually used the address name of the file, for example www.name.com. But many programs use more than one IP address to communicate with home. Until know I just search the internet for such files. My questions, is there a way to find the address names of this IPs so I can blocked them in the hosts file? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyg Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Would a netstat work? Just launch CMD as admin and type in netstat -b it will then list the process in [*.exe] along with the IP when the app makes a request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
