if a site ever offends you...
just add it to the file
from time to time
I'll still get a popup sometimes,
but it will be a blank page unable
to hijack my browser.

you manually edit the file in notepad
just make sure you save it as hosts.sam
not hosts.txt

Edit:
Did you check to see if something
spyware/malware
is hijacking firefox?
