Hostlist.txt format        The format appears to be 4 pairs of letters (one for each IP section) , colon, port number, and white space.  The letters in the IP address are:   
0 - 2 
1 - 3 
2 - 8 
3 - 9 
4 - : 
5 - ; 
6 - < 
7 - = 
8 - > 
9 - ? 
10 - H 
11 - I 
12 - K 
13 - L 
14 - M 
15 - O   
The order I can't verify, but assuming ASCII ordering and significant value first, something like =888H=I= may become   
(7*16 + 2).(2*16 + 2).(10*16+7).(11*16+7)   
which is   
114.34.167.183   
We'd have to do some more verification to realy get it...           |
