Yes...

hosts

Different versions of Windoze have it located in different folders, so I won't go into 'location'...
Just do a search for

hosts

There is only one file spelled exactly that way.

Copy the following into a document (Notepad).
Copy the file you make to replace the original 'empty' default file.

(Sorry, this needs to be in two parts...)


Do NOT click on ANY of the underlined 'links' in the following list !

# hosts v1.4
#
#This is a list of **DISABLED**#**ADWARE URLs - PLEASE UPDATE & SHARE**
#(If you do update and share this file, please increment the Version Number.)
#
#Search in Windows for hosts for more info.
#
#You will find the following information in an unmodified ORIGINAL version of #your hosts file:
#
#
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
#
# The address 127.0.0.1 sends 'replies' into "electronic oblivion".
